Thumbs up 1981 Yamaha 550 Seca

I'm trying to sell my 1981 Yamaha 550 Seca. It has about 24,000 miles on it, has it's share of scratches from several previous owners, the kill switch doesn't work, and it doesn't start easily in weather below 50F. If it's warm out, the bike has no starting troubles at all. As soon as the bike is started in the cold, though, it runs without any difficulties whatsoever. This bike has been a wonderful and fun bike to learn to ride on. It would make a great first bike for anyone, and it definitely is good for learning to wrench on, too. I've also thought about turning it into a bobber for some time, as this would be fairly easy to do. Anyways, I'm looking to upgrade bikes, so it's time to clear out the garage. I'm asking $1000 obo. I'm located in Bellingham, WA.
