Well , I guess I officially crazy now ...... my 04 GT is gone and I now have an '02 LTC in Champagne with just under 10K on her and a full coverage 2 year Pinnacle warranty.
She seems to be in good to very good condition with only a few little nicks and scratches typical of a lightly used 5 year old machine. This big girl has definitely laid down a time or two on her slightly scratched "bumpers" but nothing bad. Throttle cable being replaced. No signs of any leakage anywhere and tires are probably 50-65% or so. Sure hope the rear drive is a good one , warranty otherwise.....Everything seems to work well and she rides like a dream.
I am very impressed with how well she handles given her size and weight. Acceleration is better than I thought given my GT was 30 hp stronger AND almost 180 or so pounds lighter. Very comfy so far though some J peg XL's are going to be in order.
Question : I think I have the stock windscreen but it seems pretty tall for a stocker. I am 6'1" w/33" inseam and in the lower position I look over it by about 2+ inches which is usually about perfect. When I raise it completely I am looking through it which is a bit odd at first (this is the largest fairing on any bike I have owned).
After a good thorough detailing, mirror tethers come first, J peg XL next,
Anyway , looks like she will be a great ride for the next couple of years hopefully...... :bmw:
