definitely take it for a test drive and check it out. look, listen, and feel for anything that seems out of place. if all seems good, go for it!

In my area, Missouri, I have found used 750i for that same price and slightly cheaper......around same mileage.

My buddy has a BF, and I am NOT at all impressed with its stability. Off-camber, the downhill front side really dips low, sending the center of gravity that direction!

I came across a BF the other day, and the guy had tumbled it down a hill on a part of the trail that was seriously off-camber. Thing is, I have ridden my Ranchers through there at speed a hunderd times and never felt like I was going to go over the side. Took us a good hour to get the BF back upright, and winch it back up the hill and back onto the trail.....
