All 3 of those really surprised me, They are all about half what I would think they are worth and less than I normally see around here. Usually prices like that come with a "bill of sale only' caveat.

Buy that GT!! A 3 cylinder, 2 stroke road bike would be so sweet! Plus it's not far from being road worthy. Do it!

Surprised the add on the 550 is still up after 7 days for $450.00 unless he does not know how to delete or its a scam. That is a great deal. The first year models with the front drum brake are worth a little more than the later disc bikes.   I'd be all over that bike ;)

I might have to check out that 200t for giggles.  Lindenhurst is a tiny town that i just happen to be located in.  I know where that bike is located just by the picture.

He responded....the GT550 has been sold. Oh well, thats what happens when you hesitate.  I bought a K7 though...
