I haven't ridden in many, many years and I would love to buy a nice Vulcan 800. However, I'm thinking of buying this 1983 550 LTD with 4,500 original miles to get my feet wet this year and maybe leave it around if the wife ever decides she wants to learn. I remember riding my friends 440 LTD in the late '70's and it was pretty zippy.
- Anything specific I should look for when I test drive it?
- Are parts readily available for this year (I have a dealer closeby)
- Any recommendations?
I haven't seen it yet but the owner tells me its in great shape. Assuming he's telling the truth, is it worth $800?
Thanks for your help!
PS Second owner who bought it from his neighbor years ago.
