I called and texted him no replie as of yet. That is the identical bike I bought in 1987 as an 86 leftover.

Hope you pick it up! Keep us posted on how it goes.

Spoke to the owner today. I am supposed to go look at it tomorrow. I will buy it if I get the wife's approval. Cheers, Bobby

Now I wish I bought it. FFFUUU

**wicked86gsxr** · 11-30-2012, 10:25 PM

I'll let you guys know tomorrow if I get it.

**GSXR7ED** · 11-30-2012, 10:48 PM

Make it happen! I'm excited for you.

Ed

**wicked86gsxr** · 11-30-2012, 10:51 PM

Thanks, but I probably shouldn't get it or won't get it since the wife says I need to sell some of my toys before I buy another. But I am still going to look, well 99% chance I will.

**GSXR7ED** · 11-30-2012, 11:04 PM

Holy cow, that is a tough pill to swallow. Know the feeling with regards to the WIF. Do what you gotta do...but that is a NICE bike. I know it's said, "another one will come around" but opportunity only knocks once. So, play on!

Ramp is in the truck and the straps are too. Most likely go look at it, fall in love again and maybe I can strike a deal.

**GSXR7ED** · 11-30-2012, 11:25 PM

It's gonna be tough to sleep...at least it would for me because I would be so excited.

I paid $3K for my first bike without any hesitation. The seller saw my reaction and knew I was serious.

Don't tease yourself if you have no intention...can you walk away without feeling like it shouldn't be yours?

See why it's gonna be a restless night?

I don't suppose you had a picture of the right-side of the bike, to make an overall determination (initially based on images, of course).

the CL ad had an image of the right side and it looked mint to me

My tech/best friend had an 86 just like that when i met him he went to MMI the next spring and had a friend loop it for him.

**GSXR7ED** · 12-01-2012, 11:35 AM

Wow! Can't go wrong with the price...if ONE has $1500 to spare that would be ideal. Let's hope for some good news today.
