Looking for a friend...

A buddy's 22 yo. son just got his MC license and is looking for a decent bike in the sub $1500 range. Obviously nothing flashy, just wants it to run.

If anyone here has a bike that might fit that description, or knows someone that does, shoot me a text or a PM.

Oddly enough Kyle, he sent me that link and asked my opinion. I thought it was a pretty good deal, so he is going to check it out.

If he wants to do a little work (or pay someone) this might be a good buy.

That Suzuki looks like a perfect bike for a beginner.

That little 650 looks nice for its age!

Those were Suzuki's challenger to Yamaha's 650 twin, but the never got any love.

He ended up with a Yamaha Radian 650. Thing was spotless and came with a bunch of extra parts and Maint. items.

The kid is pretty happy and also being respectful of the throttle. The little thing has some giddy-up!
