May be losing my mind but, I'm thinking about picking up another Trike
Post caught my eye in our local neighborhood web forum. Gentleman a couple of towns away has a 89 GL1500 Motor Trike conversion. Everything works except for the digital readout that tells you what gear you're in and what mode/channel you're on. No oil leaks, started right up, no major dings or tears.
Paint could use a good coat of wax and buff out, but overall is in good shape for a 30 year old bike. Owner is 75 is the second owner, and is retired military and a stickler for maintenance. He's ridden it the last 15+ years, but his wife can no longer ride and they are more into fishing now than riding.
If I remember the mileage correctly it was 45K but might have been 85K....neither of which would be excessive for a well maintained Wing. The only concern I have is it smoked some when first started but it stopped when it warmed up some. He wanted $7500 but will take $6500 for sure and I might get it down to $6K What are the negatives I'm missing?
Anyone with Classic GL1500 experience?
