The Odometer reads 9311 and 9/10. This bike has been sitting for a while and needs a new home.

The engine was the Honda VT500, 491 cc (30.0 cu in) OHC three-valve, iquid cooled V-Twin with a six-speed, haft drive transmission. This bike was sold to me by my grandmother following my grandfather's death and is in "as is" condition. I rode it one time before a fuse blew (pictured). It has been sitting in my garage for two years. It looks like it has been dropped once and needs a new battery. The bike is not running at this time due to the needed battery and fuses. Although my grandfather sold me the bike, just do not have a need or will to ride it. The title is clean and the price ($900 or obo) is negotiable. Full disclosure, he bike may need further maintenance before it is in riding condition, owever it has been kept in good condition. Please remember if you are seriously interested please bring a trailor because the bike is not running at this time.
