I live in South Korea and export of used vehicles from here to Africa is a thriving business. On a personal note, when I was in Baghdad I saw several commercial vehicles with Korean writing on them, presumably imported and repurposed from Korea.

“My folks always installed a dash mat as soon as they bought a new car. They live in the Mojave desert and rarely park in the garage.

“How is sound quality at the other end? Or is it a lot of Wind Noise and breathing?”

I have the earlier version of this unit, the Cardo Packtalk. When I’m on a phone call with someone, they can’t even tell I’m on the bike, even at highway speeds. Note that I have a fairing and windshield, and wear a full-face helmet. I

Add rent-to-own stores to the list as well.

They weren’t all bad. My parents owned Buick almost exclusively for nearly 50 years. They had a ‘83 Century (with 3.0L engine) for five years and 150,000 miles, no issues, so they bought another. And five years later they bought a LeSabre (3800 engine), and drove it for 10 years and only routine maintenance required.

I was on the fence, but the 5MT pushed it onto the nice price side for me.  If the prices was $500 lower I wouldn’t have hesitated.

“How do you turn a ball sideways?”

I don’t know, but keep trying

Ah, there’s something that I want you to know now
Just as sure as the engine’s gonna blow now
The problems come and the check engine light glows now
Before you buy it ‘cause you think you love it so now.
My mama told me, “You better shop around”

Too late.

This was my thinking, and I voted nice price, but it was a tough call. But what pushed into NP territory for me is how many boxes this thing checks.

“why would anyone ever want to drive a manual pickup truck?”

I grew up driving manual pickups, so nostalgia?

There are better bikes out there for this price, but that’s not what this is about. This is a interesting, quirky bike. Not a good choice if you’re looking for a commuter bike to daily, this is something to tinker with, ride occasionally, and take to a local bike night. They aren’t making any more Buells, so although

loose  =/= lose

Today I learned that Jalops here at NPOCP will gladly pay $2500-$3000 for any hunk-o’-junk that runs, but not pay $4500 for a very clean sporty coupe with a manual transmission. I’m a bit surprised --  I think it’s a fair price for what’s on offer here.

Only 60,000 miles, but also 22 years old. So even though it’s in great condition for its age, expect some maintenance to be required. I’d like to see a price below $4000 for this car.

Sure, it’s a fantasy. Nothing like that could ever happen. Oh, wait....

Needs a longer roof to get anywhere close to the asking price.  $2900 for this sedan?  Not in this condition.
