| Good morning to everyone.
I am looking for a silver wing 600
I live in Rome Italy.
I found one here in my town for a nice price with 54000 km in very good conditions. Would like to know if someone can give me some tips how to check the silver wing before i buy it.
Are 54k too many km?
best regards
J. |

| I'm not very knowledgeable about prices but 54K kilometers is not much at all - one rider has 140,000+ miles on his!

| Jon,
It doesn't seem like many miles for a SWing and I'm also not sure about prices outside of the U.S. But I would just check for how well it seems the owner kept care of it. Ask how he maintained it, when did he last change the belt, how often does he check the oil etc. There really isn't much to do to the SWing since they just run so good and it doesn't seem like things ever happen to them.
I have 33,000 miles or 53,000 km on mine and it still runs like new. If you do buy it, or another SWing, there are many Pictorials on this site to explain how to do a lot of work yourself. Good luck and keep us informed. _________________ Ride safe, JeffR 2007 Silver Wing (30,000 miles) 2005 Majesty 400 (sold 12,500 miles) 2004 Reflex (sold 3,500 miles) Givi Windshield, top case, vista cruise, power commander, dr pulley sliders, air hawk seat pad, (J.
