Great running bike and I would still take it cross country -- I did have it in Montreal and northern NH just last summer.  It has good power, tourquey, low center of gravity, rides and handles well in town, on the highway, and everything in between.  103,XXX miles on the clock (equates to about 93,000 actual miles), silver color, ABS, fuel injection, spoke wheels, system cases, luggage rack, factory windshield, center stand, accessory outlet. Loved and well cared for by its owner.  12,000 mile major service just performed.  Maintenance on this machine is simple, if you ask me.Customizations installed on the bike: Corbin saddle (adjustable height) and one backrest, OEM plastic engine guards, OEM wind deflectors for the hands, PIAA 1100 running lights, Run-n-lites taillights, Centech AP-2 aux fuse panel, RAM mount ball, USB power outlet.Newer stuff done to the bike: New battery in 2013, ABS rebuilt in 2014, clutch and all possible associated parts replaced in 2014, Speigler brake lines, pads and speed bleeders in 2014, Hyperpro shocks front and rear in 2015. New cables (clutch, throttle and choke), alternator belt and steering head bearing in 2016. I've swapped out a lot of the corroded fasteners and cracked rubber parts over the years. Avon Storm 3D X-M tires; front is new.Comes with original tool set (which is a nice one), oil filter wrench, Haynes service manual, cover, tank bag, and Airhawk seat.Full disclosure on the negatives: It has the low rev stutter like all these oilheads, and a fraction-of-a-second power hiccup if you get on the throttle in low RPMs -- can easily be avoided by keeping the RPMs up. The right side head gasket just barely started to leak last summer but has not been an issue; I had to add about a pint of oil during all my riding this past season. Of course there are normal wear and tear scuffs and scratches. Left side cylinder head is scuffed from going down at low speed on wet pavement.  Right side has scratchs from going down in gravel at no speed.beemer triumph ducati sport touring naked roadster standard bike gs dual sport enduro street yamaha honda suzuki kawasaki
