| Not sure just yet It seems with the current market that I should fix it, because it still is a verry nice bike yet. The problem is time is more of a constraint for me. It is a 82 aspencade.The paint and clear coat is still orig and is in good shape.

Look on your local craigslist and see whats on there...........4500 is gonna be a hard one for a 1500 I believe. I have seen 1200's go for that

| Im sure i may have to do a little more --I just dont want to put 2-3000 more in them then is on the loan value. I know some of them are worth it , but is hard to convince your banker of that lol.

Hey thanks for the Craigs list idea --I found a good running 88 that needed a little tlc , mostly some paint for 2900 thats fits my budget well--I had enough cash for that. I need to find a few parts --but have already found some of them for chep. Everything works on it so Im happy!!.

| Getting used to the 1500 ,I realy like the ride it has, and runs so easy too . I find my self cruising so much faster it just runs that much easier then the 1100 did. I have put about a thousand miles on it so far . I think the carbs could stand cleaning -- it has a slight hesitation right at the bottom. but its running better everyday . I have found a lot of the little peices I wanted for it and so far I havent spent much on it. So many parts out there for them. Are there any seats better then another? any recomendations? I have to put one on anyway.
