AAaargh!
01/19/09 at 07:55:52

I made it all the way to the bank this morning before I realized it was closed for MLK day! I put a deposit on a 2006 Savage with only 137 miles on it Saturday and wanted to pick it up today (but I need a Cashier's check). Total price was only $3000, so I think I did good.

Actually, this will be my third LS650. I had a yellow '96 and a blue '01 in the past (this one is black). I've owned many other bikes, but seem to keep coming back to the LS650.

I even went to Lowes this morning and bought the #7 stoppers and bolts so I could do the seat lift right away. :'(

I don't know about 1986, but in 1996, when I bought my first one (it was new), it cost me about $2700.

daweise1 Junior Member Offline Old school, new school, I cheated in both..... Posts: 77 Pataskala (Cols.) Ohio	Re: AAaargh! Reply #11 - 01/21/09 at 09:26:21 Bought my 04 with 8600 miles for $2000 even July 08. Great deal...... Too bad I'm dropping another $1500 into customizing parts, $600 in powdercoating, and about $750 into paint...... Oh well, $5000 for this custom project is not as bad as my Beamers I guess...... (Just don't tell the wife.......)
