Not mine; I was just looking on Michigan CL as I'll be visiting family there soon. Thought one of the Michiganders here might be interested:

It's in Holland, so it was probably only ridden to church and back on Sundays ;)
Is this thing working? Is this thing on?

Presumably it needs a starter clutch replacement or why mention starts on kick start?

Checked it out yesterday, and went for a short test ride...



IMO, it needs $ome love.  Goes straight down the road...
Seller said he's owned it for six years.

Could have taken it home for $1600, but decided to pass.  From my perspective, the bike needed too-much stuff repaired or replaced.

The engine was quiet and seemed to run well.  Seller suggested the starting issue was probably with the button switch in the corroded right-hand control.
