How do you lessen the value of an otherwise decent original GT380?

-Muffler baffles have been removed for improved exhaust flow
-Modified front and rear fenders

About 3 years ago one turned up 2 miles from the house, had $800 on it, and was all stock. By the time I went to town and came back, all about 30m, stopped and it was gone. :( I knew I should have grabbed it when I went by the first time. :thumbdown:

The 380s are actually a nice ride. Smooth as a sewing machine, and almost as powerful! :e11 j/k :lol:
Actually, on one of our "After Christmas" rides with Ed a few years ago, Tony Nicosia joined us and having his choice of any of Ed's bikes, requested the 380 for the ride! :wave:

I drove a stock early model from Seattle to L.A. and then on to Alabama. It was a very comfortable and smooth ride. Completely reliable. I'd hold it on 80 to 85 mph all day long. Not one issue.
