70K, repainted with salvage title. High bid so far $1.5K with four days left.



Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.

Looks nice, cut down windshield, C bars (?) aftermarket shock, might be a good deal if bidding doesn't go bat crazy.

C bars and the windshield cut down like I did mine to get the vortex on my chest so the helmet was in clean air for a quiet ride.
