Not bad for a grand. I bet the paint looks fine from a few feet away, because I think it looks fine as well. Slap a 6GC decal on it.

For $1k, I would have bought the same thing, in fact I might take your lead. Looks very nice!

Yes, the paint looks like crap up close, but from far away it's not noticeable. Hahaha yea once I finish some maintenance to ensure safety, I'll take the body down, sand it down and give it a spray.. and then slap a 6GC.net sticker on xD

Screw a sticker, just make a stencil and put it along the bottom. I say keep the bike white and the letters black...maybe blue.

It's got 40K. I think it's considered really high miles for a bike. But as long as I keep up with maintenance, it should last a while.
And plus, $1000 for an old beater bike for learning purpose (riding and mechanically) is not a bad thing. Guess what. This bike's got almost the same horse power as my ST. Sigh..... -------------------- |
