  17. I got my 83 in 88, (it's been maxed since.) I got my other 83 in 98 or 99:icon_smile_question I don't remember, from a friend for 500bucks, and it ran like a champ, I now keep it (almost in stock condetion) for a friend;) that comes over from Scotland every now and then, That way he has a chance of keeping up with me, I paid another friend 200 bucks in 99 for an 87, All I wanted was the plastic, :pbut it ran. then I got an 05 250 verago for the wife, but she stoped riding alone after we got hit 2 months later, so I use it now and then.
