Default 2002 VL800 Volusia

Hi all,

I'm thinking of buying a used 2002 VL800. The ad says it only has 5100 miles on it and is very surprising. It has a clean title and never been dropped so the owner said. He did mention something that was disturbing. He says that if the longer the bike sit idles in number of days the longer it takes to start up. Anyone with an older VL800 can attest to this? My main concerning is that this bike seems to be mostly in storaged and that he didn't maintain it for storage. Also, he's asking for $3899. it comes with saddle bags, and a windshield. Does that sound like a good price?

Thanks!
