I can say, this is only one experience that was less than desirable. Most everyone Ive dealt with has been great in the context of communication, and working through things if it doesn't always pan out.

same. and my 89 too. for cars, though, i'm just not a long distance car buyer in most cases, need to feel and touch. parts, bought a **** S H I T load (WTF is up with the filtering?). but even like buying local retail, sometimes stuff gets messed up. in the end, i'm way ahead here. only had one bumpy transaction with that a-hole eddie.

However, all those are in the shed and the only bike that resides in the garage is this 1985 Yamaha RZ350. Original 5,000 mile example show winner. I only drive it through Angelus Crest once in a blue moon. Body work was changed from the Kenny Roberts yellow and black to the Red White and blue. I was never a fan of the RWB colors until I saw it on a black framed (normally on a red frame) bike.
I am the 3rd owner. The first owner put 20 miles on it in 20 years. The second owner tagged 5,000 on it and I'm responsible for about 400 miles so far.
The bike has John Lassek's chambers which you can't get anymore. emulators in the front forks, Fox float in the rear, and everything on the bike is changed out annually, tires and rubber, to keep the bike in showroom condition. It's a flawless example of the past. I love it. Very similar to a GT3 in terms of motor responsiveness and redline.
Apologies for taking this thread off topic. Not many folks take notice of these 2 strokes.

Right around there, $220, but we had agreed on $150 to be paid and I would cover the difference. Also, didn't pick it up from FedEx and was getting calls that my account was liable for storage charges because it wasn't being picked up from the terminal. The whole premise was it needed to get there asap and he would reimburse for shipping.

Members: I purchased twice from Red. Both transactions and the communications were great.

That is a 1979 Daytona Special. I've also got a 1978 Silver and gray, fully built by Gary Shumake, DG swingarm, etc.......
