Guest Swifty Posted October 10, 2010 Share #1 Posted October 10, 2010 The Browner keeps on going and going and going...and now it's FOR SALE... NO reasonable offer will be refused. I'm giving someone else the chance to get the Venture smile with a minimal investment. You will ride a rattle free bike thanks to "living room" maintenance done by a perfectionist who took 100s of pictures to prove every job. Seriously interested parties can PM me for a long list of upgrades and OEM new parts installed in the last 4 years, including in the last 6 months: new clutch plates on a PCW racing kit a complete carb rebuild including gaskets and diaphrams. and a new throttle cable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Swifty, just in case, if you are going to WING it. Better check to see if the WING will fit through the door, before buying (and ramp will hold it). I just can't see you, with a 2nd gen.

If you didn't get lucky,,,, why would you wish it on someone else? By the way, that scoot is worth what ever you pay for it! That's if you like riding. If it the other reason, best get a crotch rocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
