I'm going to look at a 2003 Burgman 400 tomorrow. It has 6,429 miles on it and looks to be in good shape. I was an avid motorcyclist up until two years ago when I hit a deer on my way to Yellowstone. I was gun shy afterwards and sold my bike within a few months.
Anyway, I'm looking to get back in the saddle, but am only planning to do short trips the occasional ride into work. I rode scooters when I was younger and always loved the simplicity, just get on and ride.
The asking price for the 2003 is $2,000, which seems reasonable to me considering the low miles. Does it seem about right to y'all?
What things should I look out for since it's an 11 year-old scooter? I know motorcycles, but the Burgman seems to be a much different animal.
One last question, how are the headlights? I don't think I'll ever get over hitting that deer, but I guess that's a good thing. Good headlights are important to me for deer avoidance :tongue:.
