My apologies to all. I thought all these messages were coming to me privately. Good thing I didn't say what I was REALLY thinking.
NOS means New Old Stock. As in brand new factory parts.
I have no idea what a risk free topper mod is.
Yes, the muffler is scratched up. If I had a new one I would have installed it or listed it in my ad.
I have been getting unsolicited opinions on how I should have listed this, or listed that. I have not recorded city/town vs highway miles. I do not know anyone who does, and frankly who cares. I rode the motorcycle, didn't abuse it, and took good care of it.
Please respond to me privately if you'd like to see it or test ride it. Actually please reply privately anyway. There is no reason to take up list bandwidth with speculations, advice, or opinions. I'm trying to sell my motorcycle. Period. You're either interested or not.
