| I had my mechanic look at my Silverwing to see what it would take to get it running. At a minimum its new forks, new tank and new fuel pump. We may find more problems as we move forward.
Thinking of buying a used Silverwing and transferring ad-ons. Want to spend under 3000 for a working Silverwing, 2003-2004 okay, but newer won't be turned down.
I did a lot of experimenting with items on my wing. Pioneered alot of things. But I'm thinking starting with a stock wing now and only moving over what works.
Anyway, I request that those of you in the USA, especially the southeast, simply keep an eye out for a great deal on a Silverwing and send any information my way. Yes I am keeping my eye on ebay too.
Thanks for your help my friends. Maybe I'll even buy a DennisB light bar, if he isn't too mad at me.

| Dan, Hope you find a great deal on a new-to-you Silverwing. You might find using "Search Tempest" which scans Craigs Lists to be helpful in your search. Best wishes! |

| There is a 05 on kijiji ontario with 50 KL on it for $2900. I seen it for less a few month ago might be worth looking into it.

| Check the for sale section here. SIWALT had a 2007 ABS for $3400. I don't know if it's available. The problem: It's located in Statin Island, NY. |

| Tinman, I am in Miami, FL. That is a good price, but the headache necessary to bring it into the USA, I don't want. Add to that the flight up to inspect, and the drive back... Not worth the Hassle,
Hi Yo, First Place I looked. It will cost me about $170 to fly into Newark. Even if I inspect and like the bike. Then its a 1300 mile 21 hour drive. At least one night's hotel stay ($100), and $130 in gas. So $400 over and above the cost of the bike. I also sent a PM to jfg9836. Much closer.
