    Just reg'd, and looking for experienced advice on a particular bike as I do not own one yet.
    Its an 02 1150RT, 166k mi, owner was OCD on maint/repair, has replaced all the stuff that wears out, ect....it seems to be in very good mechanical cond.
    My primary concern is the engine/power-pack? With 166k the price is right (with Uni-Go trailer) Funds are of course a little tight and Im concerned about major repair costs in the short term. Although i could, and would sell the Uni-Go to offset initial investment.
    The other consideration is of course to hold-off and find another with fewer miles even though "start-up" cost would be higher.

    Thanks in advance...

    Hi Twinsig.

    Welcome to our club forums.

    If you are in or near the Birmingham area, have the bike taken to Terry at Terry's Two Wheel in Pelham, (205) 987-1928, for an exam and very good advice. Good luck.

      Twinsig,

      I have emailed the owner of that particular bike concerning the purchase of the Uni go. He would not let it go though. If you decide to purchase the RT, I would like to discuss buying the Uni go from you.

            Probably $1500 To $1800 with the hitch included.
