I'm not over paying for anything I never do. I also require it to be currently street leagal and running. Needing some work is okay but nothing stupid expensive or complicated. Not going to buy anything wrecked badly rash is cool if it's cosmetic. I know I'm asking a lot for this shitty area but I'll make a trip to get the right bike.
Boom, found it..

Only problem I've seen out here with them is they have been severly abused I've yet to find a decent one. Granted I haven't looked really hard. Whatever I buy will become a trail bike after my bankruptcy goes thru it's courses and I buy something newer.

The Blast is a pretty crappy bike.

Seem to be super hit or miss.

Buell is now defunct which is worth noting, but any HD dealership should still be able to service them and get parts.

People on ADV love the Ulysses, but that was the upper end of Buell's line whereas the Blast is the bottom end.

EDIT: They have everything, not just "adventure" bikes.

Mostly older guys too, so the chances of getting an okay-condition used bike is higher.
