Oh wow I must not have subscribed to my own post, didn't even know it had replies! Bummer. I have been eyeing the Salem one but he wants 4k and is very firm, I think he said he would do 3900.
I finally found a 2007 with 533 miles, front and rear cycle racks, only 1.5 hours away in Prineville. I live pretty remote in Antelope, OR and even Portland is a solid 4 hours. Borrowed a truck and got it home no problem. Paid 2600 which was the very top of my budget, but it should last me a long time. My 61 scout needs some work, so this will buy me some time to tear it apart.
Took some heet to even get it running, it's sat for a while but is in nice shape. I plan to do all new fluids, clean carb out and possibly replace spark plug. I may go through the sticky post on how to resurrect an old bike. I've never ridden a bike until yesterday and it was definitely fun. Lots of property out here, should be a good investment for me.
Thanks all for your posts even though I somehow missed them!
