The threads a little early considering it's still miserable outside and I have a vibration issue to deal with, but here it goes:
I'm selling my black on black 1997 Honda Elite CH80.
As one would gather from the name, it's an 80cc scooter, which means it will do 45 with a ~200lb rider (does 42 with my fat ass on it).
Legally in IL you need that stupid intermediate license (or M class) to ride it because it's over 50cc, that has absolutely not stopped my wife from riding it all last summer.
This is a fantastic way to grow confidence on 2 wheels before stepping up to a motorcycle, it's a single speed so no shifting. It rides just like a bicycle but without all that pesky physical work!
This specific example has 7500 miles on it, and has been down once or twice in its life prior to my ownership but hides it well (small bend on one of the lower sills, and the ambers have been replaced, both could be replaced cheaply if it bothered you badly enough, tracks straight and true).
I've replaced the front door trim plastics so it has a fully functioning 'Frunk'. I've also hunted down and installed the OEM luggage rack for the back of it.
It also has brand new tires at the end of last season (name brand, I'm drawing a blank, I think michelin), and will have a fresh oil change before this season. It also has brand new mirrors, a cell phone mount (yes, seriously), and a new air filter. The seat was also re-upholstered just prior to my ownership.
We are selling this one as I'm the primary rider for my train station commute (we have 2 of them) and we are considering stepping up this scooter toward a motorcycle.
These are an absolute riot, 100mpg, dead reliable, electric start, center stand, locking front trunk and a small under seat storage compartment for registration and a multi tool.
I'm looking for $1000 obo (and as mentioned, this is early I know so I plan to address any post storage issues prior to sale).
(Rear trunk not included as I'm moving that to my other scooter)
