this old man has faced reality...Sad

many of you have seen pics of it on here in some form or fashion.

probably somewhere between 1500 and 2000 if ebay/craigslist are any type of quasi-indicators.

i'll give you 900 for the engine, and you can make a stationary exercise whoop blitzing machine with the chassis.

I don't think I'm manly enough for that bike. It must come with some kind of testosterone test, right?
I shudder to imagine launching that thing off Henry Hill late in the moto...with armpump.

in all seriousness, the engine alone is worth 1500 on ebay. i wish i could find a 500 motor, kawi or honda, for less than a G, i'd buy it this second.

Dang, BobbyM, that baby looks good! Some blue fork boots(or blue sealsavers) would complete the package.

BTW, Those forks on the 89s were some of the biggest and best conventional forks made.

actually those forks are much better than the upside down units that were an "upgrade" on the following scooters. I had a 92 and i liked these much better.
