Yeah... I'm glad my '85 has 99cc more power and no recalls

The guy just rounded down 99cc so it wouldn't sound as fast. Maybe that's what the recall did take away 99cc from the motor lol.
I highly doubt that you would want to talk to someone like that. I have a feeling he might be a crayon or 2 short of a full box.
Low mileage 1985 amethyst in color. Someone had better go deal with the guy, as that one is a collector item for sure.
I don't remember Yamaha recalling anything, but I do remember many, many people recalling how the mighty Vmax is very fast when in conversations after seeing one in action. :biglaugh:

Also, unfortunately my offer of $6,000 was recalled and reduced to $4,500 for the fact of the initialy offer being to over priced HAHA

I know right!? And to think, my handgun has the nerve to sit in my nightstand day in and day out and does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
You're still pretty generous at 4500 I would have recalled at least 3K and possibly 3500. Who wants to own a killer bike? Meaning a bike that has killed lol. NOBODY!

That's what I was thinking. I wonder if a gun-control enthusiast could chime in and tell me what my gun is doing wrong haha

I based my $4,500 on the bike being worth $3,500-$4,000 but a premium for an '85 assuming the engine and frame numbers match. Could prove to be a good investment. If I sold my other bike already, I would take a ride over and take a peek. only 2-3 hours from me.
Really, I saw a 85 with 1200 actual miles the other day in PA that they were asking 4700 which I thought was a little high but I guess not.

That 85 also probably has some MAJOR issues if only 1,200 miles were put on it in the last almost 30 years. Major seizing would be a concern for me on that one.
Ever 23K or w/e this one is listed at is low for an 85 but if it runs pretty well I'd give $4K for it in hopes that turns into 8K+ 10-20 down the road
