Yupp it was until this morning. I traded the gsxr for it Bc I want something more fun. I'll be changing fluids and filters tonight, tagging it Friday, and ready to roll by the weekend theoretically.
I'm down to ride whenever. I know NWS wants to ride too but I bailed last time.

Good God no.....chilled, maybe room tempt. That's why I'm not that interested in bikes. It just seems most bikeists like warm dick.
I am torn between a dual sport or a sport touring like the BMW F800ST. There is a sweet 2012 on CL right now with all the options I want and my favorite color!
The BMW's are so so so much more comfortable!

Dual sport ftw. I've had more fun on this Than any other bike ever. The bmw is more for long distance type traveling. Unless that's what you plan to use it for then I'd pass and get something more fun to ride personally

havent been cruising that fast yet, but ill let you know after this weekend.
according to the forums 70mph on stock gearing is like 6K rpms...... so the answer would be a firm MEH. itll do it but it wont be the best cruise youve ever been on lol. for scale, redline is 8200.
just saw one yesterday w/ 20K miles for 2400 obo if thats up your alley??
or you want a newer one?
Depends on how old that one is... 20K miles isn't terrible and that's definitely a good price. Got a link?
I've seen a few, under 2k in reasonable condition. There was one in Brunswick about a month and a half ago for 1200. It had quite a few miles and was rough, but had a recent rebuild with the 683 kit.
I really enjoy my Teedub in the woods, but it is way too slow for the highway. I commute on it sometimes, but that's only 11 miles and 33 traffic lights. When I want to go ride somewhere distant I haul it. By contrast, I traded a DR650 for it. It was a hoot on the street, and plenty fast. I dropped it in the woods. A LOT. I like to bushwhack and explore bum trails, and at 5'6" I couldn't find the ground with my toes!
Yessir. Well, sort of. Calling a RT4wd Civic Wagon a Wagovan in wagonerd circles is like getting on a gun forum and calling a magazine a clip. Wagovan was a base trim level, fwd, '88-'89 only. (pedant off/)
But yeah, the whole world knows 'em all as wagovans.
Ahhh oops lol. I didnt know they even made a FWD only one. Yours is badass though!
