"Greg in Denver" told me that if you pay close attention, in the Spring and Fall, you will find well loved motorcycles that are being sold by riders who are "aging" out of them. That appears to be what happened to me purely by accident. I saw the bike on Cycle Trader and bought it by text/ phone. PO said that through the years, he had almost 30 motorcycles. This was the only one he kept. Looking through the receipts and such. The tires were put on new in 2003 with 13,240 miles. It seems that later in 2003, he completely went thru the bike with upgrades, parked it and rode something else. These bikes are out there.Saw Frosty's bike today. I would say that there is no doubt that of all the bikes made that year, this has to be in the upper one percent of being immaculately clean. Looks perfect.
The only complaint I would have is the after market exhaust (standing behind the bike) is very loud.
The exhaust is "distinctive" (I will replace it with a larger, more closed one).
I took the fairing off to change oil and check other things. Here are some photos. The bike has not been cleaned or wiped off since it left GA. I have ridden it about 60 miles.
