I seen a 1988 conie for sale, the guy is a bike freak, he ownes 6 bikes and bought this one new, he says he changed the oil religously every 5000Km, it presently has about 240 000 km´s on it, my question is: did anybody ever see a bike with this amount of milles on it?? could it still be a good bike to buy?? he is asking $1200 but would let it go for $1000 canadian, about $850 US. he also told me he changed the exsaust cam lately.
The bearing wear is what scares me.
He also told me that the bike does not smoke.

Thanks

Charles
