Another crappy cell phone photo to add to the Craigslist pet peeves. Not enuf there visually to assess whether it's a deal or not, but price is in the ballpark, and I'd go look at it just because of the guy's ad copy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Yes the guy is a real poet... but the reason I asked is that the price seems a bit steep to me; bluebook.com, for instance, suggests 1700 retail value for this bike (that is without the supposedly improved shocks of course). On Nov 1, 5:51 am, Allen Thomas althomas...@gmail.com wrote: He must

The guy clearly put some $ into this bike. New Corbin seat, shocks, handgrips, air filter, tires and chain. Probably all needed when he bought the bike. A Corbin seat (or something else after market) is a must if you're going to ride more than 100 miles or as a daily rider. 27K miles is good,

Honda specs call for DOT 4 brake fluid. I've read specific warnings against using DOT 5 which is silicone- based. But the DOT 4 available on shelves now is marked synthetic. So questions are, what's in synthetic DOT 4 fluid, how does if differ from non-synthetic (if there is such a thing), and

Perfectly safe. It's a synthetic form of the old DOT4. IIRC, it's the lubriucant additive part that's synthetic. Otherwise, they are still glycol-ether based, and will absorb water over time. Viggy On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 12:48 PM, surfswab surfs...@gmail.com wrote: Honda specs call for DOT
