Thank you so much for the great and detailed information. As you can imagine. Buying a bike from a long distance is really nerve racking. I was very specific about what he did about the rust in the tank. He did tell me that he addressed the issue by not taking the tank out and worked on it...

This is so true which is why I am taking my time, doing my homework, and asking lots of questions.

All very good advice. I have already addressed all the mechanical things, but have not discussed electrical except for the fact that he put a new battery in it. Thanks for the input and I will take it to heart.

Thanks for your input!

Thanks for passing all this on. This will no doubt be an adventure!

Thanks for replying dan. My biggest issue is finances being that I am now living on a fixed income. However, there is a lot of sentimental value involved too. There is no amount of money that can replace all the amazing memories I had riding my Goldwings and 300,000 miles can rack up a lot of...
