They were a good bike in there day, but be carfull with it they have a name that was givin to them for a good reason they are nicknamed Slingshots, they are very very fast and have way to small of a back tire, this in makes the bikes unstable in hard throttle turns, it washs out from under you and slings you off this was a big problem for these bikes, such a problem that they quit making the bike untill it was redesigned. This is just a little history on the bikes.
But they are a very good bike as far as starting every time and staying in tune they require little to no maintance, good gas mileage and cheep insurance. enjoy the bike and the price sounds about right, just be carfull remeber SLINGSHOT for a reason

O bye the way bad ass car.:flash:

Well as I said way to small of a back tire, and way to much power= very unstable bike when being pushed....... But yes the bikes will wheelie and if it is tune i will do it with ease, whatch for the bike to tank slap on the front end when the front tire is in the air, if you are going to wheelie make sure the front tire is balanced and i would recomend a steering damper on the front also.

Ride Safe and Keep The Rubber Side Down
