Cleared funds only because you might turn up stick a battery on it and find out the slight engine noise would wake the dead and then not pay for it. |

the seller wrote: I noticed a very (very) slight engine noise at idle Either he knows more than he's saying, or he has normal Buell owner paranoia. We all hear funny noises at idle. There maybe nothing wrong with it

But as per noises, isn't the 2000 M2 susceptible to big end issues? |

There's been a bit of work done there. I'd lose those horrendous pegs and that filter, but, if I could ride again, that'd be my bike. Mind you mid be reluctant to buy a bike I'd never ridden. |

I've had a reply from the guy, sounds pretty genuine. I've asked him if he minds me posting his response on here. |
