Title: Wondering if this was a good deal (S4R)
Post by: mtewes7 on November 02, 2015, 05:31:05 PM
Just picked up my first Monster yesterday, it seemed like a good deal to me but kinda wanted to know what you experts think.   2005 S4r 5000 miles. 1 owner, obviously not riden much. Picked it up for 5k out the door. Never downed, all stock, routine maintenance so far.   My second question is, seeing as the bike has not been riden too frequently (5k miles in 10 years, what should my checklist look like. Other than fluids and most likely fresh tires? Thanks for the helP.

Still trying to figure out how to post a pic from my phone :/

check fork seals, oil and possible rusting in tank.

Too late to wonder if it's a good deal. You bought it. Enjoy it.

1 owner
5K, minimal miles
Routine maintenance
It's The bike you want

Yes, I believe it was good deal! These are pluses when looking for that "one" bike. Now get out there and ride that Muther.
