On Tucson CL at http://tucson.craigslist.org/mcy/4848761131.html
OK, it does have 21,000 mis. and paint "scratches" on the front but at $900 asking price, I wish I was looking for one.

Even if it needs the belt replaced, that sounds like a deal.

Proceed cautiously. There wasn't a whole lot of info in the ad.

A well loved beast. It would be worth a test drive at least.

the local shop mechanic said your typical scoot gets 20-30k miles before it 'starts to piss you off', but I bet with some careful maintenance and rubber replacement, they can go a lot longer.

40k is very reasonable baring some catastrophic failure. I believe Eric said there is one in LA that has 60+. My 150 has 16k and she runs like a champ. Of course....I use Motul....

Still for sale at $900 asking price. And, it does have new tires. Maybe that price is too low and scares potential buyers off?

Ask Ron or Alan at ScootOver about it. Odds are that they've serviced it.

Asking price is now down to $800. But, I need another scooter like I need a hole in my head. Still.............

At 21,000 miles, seller can't get $800 for it. How much are you going to "flip it" for?
