They value it at $7,800.00 but make any reasonable offer. It has a rear luggage box, a Jenson marine CD player in one the side trunks -- with remote up front and waterproof speakers. It also has adjustable rear links that allow the bike to be raised and lowered. Its the one with electric shift -- great fun. Why am I selling? Believe it or not, its b/c I am downsizing. I am short, found this bike a bit too tall to ride in traffick and I also have a Suzuki Burgman that I ride every day back and forth to work... I couldn't afford to keep the Yamaha for weekend trips, where it ROCKS! Two bikes in the garage was too many for the significant other and the budget, although I really like the Yamaha when I get out in the country. There simply isn't a better long distance bike for interstates or the curves. Too many toys.

Light enough, and well-mannered enough for a novice to control, but not so small and underpowered that a beginner will outgrow it instantly (like the Kawasaki 250). My son rode it for 3 years before feeling he had really outgrown it's capabilities (and I think his desire to replace it has as much to do with look as capability). _______________________________________________ dc-cycles mailing list dc-cycles@XXXXXX http://dc-cycles.org/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/dc-cycles _ _ _ _ .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-.
