   He only fudged it by a little over 10hp. Salesman tactic #6  always round up to the nearest hunnert.  Still 3500 ain't to shabby for what's there. My $.02

Well that's interesting since the speedo shown in the pics is not the factory unit.

Maybe he has sourced the correct one, but it still has the aftermarket speedo he put on it when the crap ITI went belly up?

Still looks like an awfully nice set of wheels for only $3500 . or am I way out of touch with used Guzzi prices ?   Peter

The Ohlins themselves are worth *at least* 1000 bucks. <shrug>

Yes, $3500 for a Cafe Sport seems like quite a deal to me.  Plus he say's OBO.  It's in SFO, for crying out loud, where riders ride year-round.  The bike looks to be in excellent condition, and the miles, while not "low" aren't too bad.  I'm amazed some local has't jumped on it.
