Hey mate if the ks are true and it's in really good nick it's probly close to the money. Obviously other things like suspension, accessories, and service history would also influence price. The 12ht motors are pretty bulletproof and if the g'box has been rebuilt u would expect a good amount of ks out of it. Keep in mind u could get into a turbo 80 series for not much more although most of the cheaper 80s have higher ks on them. I would be giving the 60 a good once over to make sure drivetrain wear, body and other components match the ks and then if ur happy with it possibly try negotiate. Hope it turns out well.

Why would the g/box need rebuilding at those k's if was serviced correctly etc. That would be something I would definately want to know about.

sorry people, sale didnt happend :-(

I've made a time with the retarded seller, to meet him next morning, leave him deposit, and pick up the cruiser after roadworthy is done..
Driven 230km one way, and just about 25km before his place in curtain road-pie creek, gympie, i've called him to tell him i'm around the corner, he told me Joe Grant, he SOLD the cruiser, to someone not long aro :mad: :mad: :mad:...

I could't belive it, made me drive all this way, for nothing..!..bloody idiot..!!..i was so mad than i got a speeding fine, on the way back to..!!!...

What is this world turning into..!!..i still cant belive it..!!

but thanks to everyone, for the help...I have to look for other one..

cheers..!
