Cruiser, preferably. Not opposed to '80s models. Need a commuting bike, only have about a $1400 budget though.

I know I'm reaching with the price, but maybe somebody has an old bike kicking around they'd like to unload. Even if it needs some work, as long as I can get it running again I'll be fine.

Let me know what you have!

I have a 1990 Suzuki GS500E. I bought it off a friend that upgraded, I was going to make it into a stunter, but I guess I can part with it. It needs some work, as I'll do most of it myself, but I'd be open to offers. I think around your budget would be a good price. It has 33k km's on it, black in color with white three spoke rims. If your interested, I can work out the kinks on it and by the spring time its yours, if you wanted it that is.
:dunno:

Sure I'll take some when I'm at my buddies workplace next, as thats where all our bikes are stored. Its a good bike, but I have no use for it other then to pull the engine and stuff it in a go-cart or use at as a stunter bike or whatever. :dunno:

Man that is no way to treat a bike like that :(

If 97'Scort doesn't take it, I will (seriously) l'm looking for a cheap track/rat bike.

Okay, I'll keep you guys posted. It has a Ducati Monster seat (by Corbin) aftermarket seat (SOOO comfy), otherwise its bone stock, it could use a new set of the rear plastic, but its good to go. I'll make a FS thread and post in here in time, but its only Jan 31st, so theres no rush

Thanks :) I'm moving out to Victoria this summer to start school again, and the bimmer sucks down premium a little too much for a student budget :rolleyes:
