Selling for my friend in Florida , this is a one owner bike my friend is getting to old to drive it, has been stored inside and not been driven in the last year, cleaned gas tank, fresh gas and new battery... Cranked right up sounds amazing, everything works except the speedometer, shows speed but mileage doesn't move ,mileage was 8900 when meter stopped, believed he put another 2500 miles on it since .clear Florida title, stored in my warehouse in Mississippi  . Will sell no reserve and assist with shipping, bike needs nothing other than a good home. Thanks for your interest.
