Well I bought the 550. Looks to be in real good shape. Paint is very nice as is the chrome. DOes not run but the carbs and cylinders are free. Inside the tank is ugly but I didn't see any rust. I spent 2 hours with the owner. She was only 55 but she is disabled and can't do much for herself. After I got the bike out of the shed I did some odd jobs for her. I went up the street and got her mail. I moved 4 huge old love seat out of the shed and to the curb. Her cat had gone a few days without wet food and was pissed so she asked me to go to the store and get her some cat food since no one had been around to drive her to the store. I took her garbage out for her and looked at a problem she was having with her truck. I spent a few hours listening about her husband, her diablilites and life in general. I could tell she was just happy to have someone to talk to. I got the bike for $200 which was less than she wanted but I think it is fair, maybe too high because it has not title and does not run. If I had bought it from some young, healthy guy I would have given more than $100 for it but I am glad I could help her out bit. She really wanted it out of the shed so she could have more room so she was happy with the $200. I will get it running and then go from there.
