Bud Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 He thinks he wants to buy an RT. Budget maxed at 10 K. Which years would the be best value for his money? Link to comment
mickeym3 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Best camhead he can find...doubtful he’ll find a wet head in that $ range. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Tell him to rob the kiddies piggy bank! He's very close to the best RT made to date! One year older, less miles, a bit more money but, toss a $9,000 offer at them. Link to comment

Bud Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 Thanks Mike. I appreciate the offer. I'm going to call the owner to get a feel about things. Link to comment
mickeym3 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Bit surprised you can possibly get a wet head for 10K....have had cam head and a 15 wet head and the newer one was head and shoulders above , but a cherry 2012-2013 bike would still be a very sweet ride. 1 Link to comment
TEWKS Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 If you don't like what you hear in AL, remember the bike in Braintree has six thousand less miles and some pretty nice options including the top-case. Some extras that are included:Valve Cover GuardsBody Color Matched Top CaseSW Motech EVO Daypack Tank BagIlium Works Engine Crash BarsIlium Works Rear Case Crash BarsWerks Quiet Ride 26" WindscreenGarmin Zumo GPS (integrates with the motorcycle) Link to comment

Mike If you go pick that up ask mikeb60 for a lodging recommendation. We thought Opelika was cute but the Motel6 there was maybe top three or even two two for sketchiest places we’ve ever stayed...and that’s a list with some very “questionable” lodging in it. (Don’t worry Bud - your house isn’t in that list! Thanks to Nancy!) Link to comment
