This Bike is virtually brand new. A friend bought it new, learned to ride, made a few laps around town, scared himself and parked it in his garage. There are a couple of minor defects in trim and paint, nothing you would even describe as a scratch and it has never been down. It has been gone through, new battery and fuel system rubbers and hoses to upgrade to ethanol compliant. Bike runs perfect in all aspects.
