At $500, hasn't hit reserve, but could go for a reasonable price.

Not a single one of these has a "butthole tickler" installed.

Sorry.. I had to do it.. I'm a child.

Did you catch the Q & A on that post?

Q: does it have a butthole tickler installed?
A: Actually, the stock butthole tickler was removed by the previous owner, and replaced with the SuperTickle 9000. i guess that i should have mentioned such an upgrade in the post, but I must have forgotten. As I am sure you know, the SuperTickle 9000 came out a few years ago and features a variable speed motor and a ergonomic tickle post. Both of which are must-haves for the true American motorcyclist.

I have added this to the list future mods and accessories for my project bike. ;)

400f is SO much nicer of a bike

Everybody's got their opinion, I guess. I've currently got both, but my 400F engine is in a 350F frame. Sure, I like the 50ccs and extra gear, but I think they 350F styling is way better: beautiful tank, passenger pegs are on the frame and not the swing arm, fork ears and lower covers, stock colors. I'm a sucker for the 4-4 exhaust as well, although the 400F stock exhaust is very nice too -- My 350F has 400F exhaust and pegs.
 
The early bikes had the pegs on the swing arm, not an issue for me as I don't ride two up often.
And I don't use "universal" rearsets.

And I'm not all that interested in looking at the bike in a parking lot, I'm talking about how much better they are on the road and to ride.

Probably wore out. Those 9000s had loose goose bearings, even when new.
