    Went and saw this bike today, it runs perfectly but is clearly a little worse for wear. What do you think? Worth picking up or no?

    I dont know much about these bikes - but I been looking for a 2nd bike to learn how to do work on and if this was in my town I would try and work something out for sure...especially if it runs like a champ. Tires look good, new chain and sprocket is a bonus...Would be fun just to experiment with a custom DIY paint job too. Man looks like fun I would get it! lol

    500's are terrific motorcycles, I think you would really enjoy it!

    I think that if you keep looking you can find one in better shape for just a little more money.

    I paid less for one with fewer miles and original paint. Just saying, it took a long time to turn up though.

    I'm gonna pick it up. All it needs is cosmetic work and i like painting so i think it'll work. I'll make a thread when i start working on it. Should be a fun project.
