Dang, really? Youtube had me believing you guys had roads carved out of mountains by god with a very large, very hot iron. So much for California highways. The shit do I dream of coming out there if you're not even going to offer me blissful, plod free riding conditions. Might as well head far east!
I digress too, if It was anything over 20 years old, I'd take it with a pinch of salt, but this this a bike under 10 that's a fait bit of dollar bill for me, so I'd rather have some semblance of peace of mind. Thing is, at this juncture, low mileage ones fetch mega bucks, so I'd be happy with a mid mileage one that has a stack of paper to it.
First bike I had was a an Aprillia RS. That lasted 50miles out of a 100 before I saw blue smoke, red eyes, and £ signs before my eyes. That might have been the most laughable 50 miles I've ever done though.
Would give many notes for an RG125.
