Hello all! I'm a newbie to the forum and don't have a bike at the moment. I have owned 6 different crotchrocket style bikes over the past 20 years. The reason I joined this forum is b/c I am probably going to get an XS360 this weekend. I know this is XS400 forum but this is the closest I could find related to the bike.
So I have some questions for anyone that has knowledge of the XS360. The bike that I am thinking about getting is owned by a coworker. He does not know what its worth and neither do I for that matter. It was actually left to him by a former roommate and he just wants it out of his garage. Any ideas on what I should offer him? What are these things worth? The bike is in good condition and has 7xxx miles. I'm not sure what model it is but it has an electric start and front disc brake and spoke wheels. The exhaust pipes look good like its never been down. From what I can tell the bike looks complete.
When I first thought of buying it I was thinking about turning it into a café or bobber style bike. But now I'm not sure if I want to chop it b/c it does look nice original. Any suggestions on which way to take it? I'm open for any comments. Thanks in advance for answers/comments/suggestions.
