Is that the 02 on St. Catherines? It looks to be in decent shape. It does have a few of the items you will be hard pressed to find, engine guard, saddle bags and windscreen. I would at least go and look at it. If you check the prices of Drifter 800's across Canada at the present time you will see that they are running from the lowest price $4,500.00 to the high of $6,000.00. That particular 800 has been on Kijiji for awhile, so you should be able to talk them down a bit. I would call and offer $4,000.00 and see what the reaction is. Perhaps some of our Ontario member when they wake up can weigh in what they think is a fair price in Ontario for a Drifter. When I bought mine the start price the seller was asking for was $5,000.00.
If or rather once you buy your Drifter, you will be so happy you will be on cloud nine all the time. Also don't forget I am going to be hosting a Drifter event here in North Bay 28th July till Aug 1st, you are invited no matter what bike you ride. Check it out on the forum.....

- January 15, 2017, 22:41:34 PMHi, I am enjoying all the information everyone shares on this forum...thank you.
I am hoping to be a proud owner of a Drifter one day soon!... I am a new rider as of April 2016 and purchased my first bike June 3rd....'07 VStar 650 Classic white pearl with less than 8k....I am looking to sell the VStar and purchase a Drifter ...I'm just unsure of the purchase price for a Drifter. An example of a Drifter I've seen... '02 Drifter 800 60,000miles on it ...no leaks, engine bars, shield and bags. Asking $5,000....what's a good price for something like this?

shaman258 you just relax and when you finally get your bike you clean it up and get it nice and shiny then post a few pictures for us that like to see what others have and see if there are any cool ideas on that bike we can steal for our own ideas. So of course we want close up and detail shots to best see what we are going to do........
PC = Uncle Fester on the Addams family, you like him sort of, but keep him hidden under the stairs......lol......

- January 04, 2017, 13:07:25 PMshaman we have all learned to ignore Mr. PC and his comments.
I have since I owned my 800 put more km's on it then some people on their 1500's and ridden longer and farther, but then I am still healthy and young, not grumpy and old........
As for your comment on family and picking on others at their expense. I would have hoped that you have seen we are really one huge family albeit a huge dysfunctional family. We have a few black sheep in this family we do not talk about, we have others that are old and grumpy, like that Uncle we hide in the corner on those family holidays we all have to attend. There are the ones that are like older brothers with a lot of experience, and we trust them, then the ones whom we listen to and the when they are not looking we laugh at their advice. There are the few that are like a younger bothersome brother.
Then the ladies, oh the ladies, they are all like that sweet girl next door that you had a twinkle in your eye over, and they are so nice words fail me.......
Ok notice I did not mention names and I was polite.......

It's even better when they nurture it till it's a full grown 1500!
