I hate to say it, but any bike with 177k miles is worthless. Would you buy it? I sure as hell wouldn't, esspecialy since I can buy a bike with a fraction of the miles for any price he would try to sell it. Granted it looks great, like it has been taken care of, but that is a shit load of miles. What could it really be worth as is before the crash? $1000? $1500? I just don't see it being worth that much

Oh I know but if you take $4,000 and fix this bike, you will be throwing "good money after bad", if you take $4,000 and buy a newer bike, you will have a bike that is worth something. I don't know....

I'm sorry but I think Tigger and I are on the same page here. I totally understand the attachment as I said before. But its simply not worth it. I would like to see Jared on a VFR or some sport tour. OMG could you guys imagine the miles he would put on!! WOW!!
