It makes me sad to do this, but I'm going to put my 2005, "Vanessa", up for sale. A house remodel/addition has been keeping me busy for way too long and keeping me away from riding. Lately I've mostly been riding my DR650. Which raises the question of selling the C10 to free up some garage space.
I'm not sure about the price. High(ish) miles, but lots of farkles and in really good condition. I know in general a C10 doesn't go for much now. Planning to advertise this at the "convince-me-to-sell" price of $2000. But really I'd probably be convinced at $1800, so if that works for a Cogger, we could make a deal.
I'll give you all the honest gritty details below.
I'm actually about 40 or so miles out from Minneapolis, but who the heck knows where Monticello MN is? If anyone is interested I can give you more details on location/directions.

Condition:
- Good condition. Well cared for. Always garaged.
- Runs great
- 1900 miles on Avon Storm tires (110/80-ZR18 front; 150/80-ZR16 rear)
- Carburetors recently rebuilt and synched.
- New cooling system hoses
- Oil changed every 5000 miles or every season (and have just changed oil & filter).
- Mobil1 synthetic or Shell Rotella T6 synthetic. (Never any clutch problems using these oils).
- Napa Gold 1365, Bosch 3300 oil filters (many more brands/part numbers fit the SPOOFAK).
- Original seat in great condition - no holes or tears
- Left side cover was broken at bottom screw hole - recently repaired by cutting out an ABS "washer" and cementing on to support crack
- Hole in LH mirror mount (can see in one of the pictures in link)
- The edging on the back edge of the fairing is worn down in a couple of places. If you wanted to get the bike ready for the show at next year's national, you might want to replace this. Or just touch it up with some black paint.
- The belly pan has some bad scrapes (I have to admit to riding a couple of minimum maintenance roads, and maybe jumping a curb). Just don't wheelie too much and nobody will see it.
