Loved my 89' I decided agin trading up to a newer bike it was so good, from what I hear there can be a big difference.Originally Posted by renegade master
The 4 cyl liquid cooled, twin pipe 16 valve rocks.
The 2cyl single pipe air cooled 8 valve is only any good for under 60 commuters (kgs not years) I could not coax the one I rode over 60kms! (120kgs at the time).
There are several configs in between.
You will pay more for an 89 than a 91, this is because the cat/fuel emmisions etc robs a lot of ponies. About half.
If you buy 91 expect to replace the exhast system before you can really enjoy the open road. The 91 I test rode could only just manage 120kms.
I have never known anyone to regret one. Mindless stunters aside, and even they loved them on the open road.
I would happily pay 6 for a good 89 but would only pay 3 for a 91, but thats me.
