szurszewski Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 1981 CBX. $7500 Dang, those things look like fun, don't they? I don't know - I bet polishing all that chrome would be ... ...exhausting. Link to comment
elkroeger Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Wonk wonk wonk. You back from the midwest already? Link to comment
szurszewski Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Wonk wonk wonk. You back from the midwest already? Nope - just picked it up this evening. Rode it about six miles from the guy's house to a motel and then put it on the trailer. (...and then maybe a couple hours later, after dinner, I went out and started it up, on the trailer, and revived the engine a little...maybe.) Link to comment
szurszewski Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Enjoy the drive home... Well, day one has been interesting so far. Looks like Duluth will be home tonight - might have to tarry in the morning long enough for Aerostich to open for the day... Link to comment

Emfour Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Whether you measure by size or weight, this is the best buy on Craigslist in the nation. I was tempted, but only if the stock parts were included. https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/d/1996-kawasaki-voyager-xii/6592218067.html Link to comment

Butthead Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Not to derail this thread.....but what are y'alls experience with these. I enjoy my RT.....but I still think the cruiser style rider permission is more comfortable. I see these from time to time.....but haven't got the nerve up to go look at one. What are the good, bad, and uglies?? Link to comment
TEWKS Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 No experience with this model in particular but I do know the Boxer engine pretty well and, I enjoy the seating position on my old Harley Ultra, so why not... Pat Link to comment
ArmyGuy Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I owned a 1200C. It was a good cruising bike but it wasn't up to the task for the type riding I wanted to do. I always thought it was a bit underpowered. I traded it in on a 1200RT. Link to comment
elkroeger Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) One thing, is a lot of people (myself included) don't like the looks of them. So it's handy if you do like it, or even don't mind it, because they're harder to sell, and you're likely to be able to buy one at a lower price than an equivalent, better looking model.

TEWKS Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 Glad he's firm at $7500. Too close to home. I remember passing on a similar bike, a new two-ish year leftover for 18 hundred. https://boston.craigslist.org/nwb/mcy/d/1984-rz-350/6601041937.html Pat Link to comment

Pappy35 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Seriously though, I bet you there's way more money there in parts than they are asking. Hell, just the wheel assemblies alone would cost more than what they are asking. Link to comment

elkroeger Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 at 1200 miles, it's gotta be all garage damage - shoving the lawnmower in too close. That sort of thing. I blame the kids. Link to comment

TEWKS Posted May 31, 2018 Author Share Posted May 31, 2018 On the edge of smelling scam-ish at 12k. Don't tell mileage so could be a factor. https://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/mcy/d/can-am-spyder-rt-limited/6601289069.html Pat Link to comment
Bud Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) Yes, a scam. He is in the Army (lol) and won't be there in person to do the deal. DAMHIK When I told him I only bought face to face with cash, never heard back. Oh, the last time he was in Alabama, but the pictures are the same. Edited May 31, 2018 by Bud Link to comment

TEWKS Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 This was my first brand new motorcycle I owned. If it was orange I'd put up an offer, just because. Now my bike ran like crap when you got on the throttle pretty much the entire time I had it. For years I thought about why it ran so poorly and I think I may have figured it out. I use to clean the air filter all the time with Diesel Fuel. https://nh.craigslist.org/mcy/d/1978-suzuki-ts185-enduro-dual/6605059592.html Pat Link to comment
