Yea, the super low hours can be good or bad. Some will continue to have the services done, most will say "but I hardly used it" and skip all maintenance. Normal items aside, after 11 years with the drive at full tilt the bellows would be suspect. Not a huge deal breaker, but something to check before dunking it and possibly creating other problems. Note to I/O boat owners, it's best to lower your drive as much as possible when parked, and definitely if in a slip. I don't know why, but I see many boats in the marina with their drives up. Must be left-over mentality from when they were trailer boaters.

Nope.

Is that a front/back view of a coin, two coin sets, two separate coins?

No. A little Googling will show you that's not how it works.

Are you saying that active regen cycles don't put fuel into the oil or just saying that it's not common knowledge that it puts fuel into the oil?

I like my WhiteBird.

The one in the ad appears to have the stand stop, about where I recall my Yosh having it.

Mine had it.

To burn his house down?

I emailed him again for the dyno sheets, nothing.

The XX might be like the XJ, lost its appreciation to be slowly regained much later. The other factor is what people ask isn't what people are paying. Looking at closed listings on eBay there's a perfect looking '97 that got to just over $2k and a very nice low mile '03 that got $3800. Location is a big factor also.

That he's not just a liar but an idiot too? Yes.

I emailed the guy last night just for kicks. What do you mean by “30lb shot of nos”? Do you have dyno sheets on it or is the HP just speculation? At 6:55 am: Yes I hav a Dino sheet Sent from my iPhone I immediately responded and asked that he send me a copy of the dyno runs with & without NOS, no reply.

Vehicle nitrous has an added chemical that's supposed to induce a coughing/gagging effect so that you 'can't' inhale enough of it to get high. None of my bottles are handy, but pretty sure the added chemical is on the label. It's illegal to sell pure nitrous to someone without the proper papers. Apparently mine was lacking it or it just didn't work because a friend of a friend took a big ole hit of it and passed the fuck out. The shop I used to frequent for re-fills offered me the pure stuff once, I'm guessing he got it by mistake. Or maybe he was just testing me so see if I was using it/selling it to get high, maybe because I was in there so often and always happy.

If it's 30 HP that means the bike was making 170+ without the NOS, nope. And I hadn't paid attention to how close the bottle is to the exhaust, seems like a real bad idea. On the Cherokee forum there's a thread titled "people who think their XJ is gold" where people post up retardedly priced Cherokees, this one deserves a similar title.

My friend is Bird shopping, I'll let him know. What exhaust did it have and was it re-jetted for it?

IT IS PUSHING 200 HORSE POWER AT THE REAR WHEEL WITH A 30lb SHOT OF NOS WTF is a 30lb shot?!?

It's always a good time. I'm at a point where I don't need these to have enough, plus there's a few calibers I don't shoot. I had enough of some calibers that I can afford to get picky so I'm just keeping a load of matched brass for them. A big part of me wants to keep them, never too much, but I have too much of everything around here and I'm trying to get the place back under control.

I didn't think to post here before posting on a local gun forum today, but I have shit tons of brass I'm thinning out if anyone needs any. Maybe not a shit ton depending on how insane you are, but 3-4 5 gallon buckets of extras is a lot to me. Anyway, there's .38, .357, .44spl., .270, .308, .40, .45, .9mm, .380, 30-06, .223. 9mm, .223, and .45 I have thousands of. I also have more brand new .338WM than I need, the ones I've used seem to last forever. Might also have some once fired 30-30 to sell once I figure out how many to keep. There's also a few .38 Super, 5.7, .243, and probably other oddballs. Most are once fired, some sorted by headstamp. Whatever's a fair price.

I've gathered them and about to start sending PMs out.

If 0048 means it was the 48th XX made that's fuckin cool, and makes me want it even tho I 'know' I don't.

Yea, I completely spaced on you guys, sorry and thanks for the reminder. I just made myself a reminder note. If you don't hear something by tomorrow afternoon feel free to bug me.

Yea, I kinda wanna. Distance is just an added hindrance. Pulling 6k right now plus travel, or transport, would leave me somewhere around 0, probably below 0. And while it's seemingly in ready to go condition, there may be surprises that need addressing. If I can get one of mine sold before this goes away I'll probably be in.

If you were local I'd already be scrounging up the cash.
