What if everything you ever wanted came in the form of a MOTORCYCLE!

That's right, I've got one of the most bad-ass bikes on a market in Seoul. Tough as coffin nails and easy to maintain.

THE GOOD:
I've changed the oil every 500km, and just gotten her back from the shop. We're talking a NEW filter, NEW rear tire, NEW chain, NEW electric starter, fully functioning lights! Rain cover? You got it! Saddlebags? Absolutely! Lock? One for the front AND one for the back! Helmets? You'll get TWO of em (but they have no visors)! And just in case something silly happens, I've even got an extra set of keys for you!

THE NOT SO GOOD:
Like every other motorbike in Seoul, I bought this one with it's share of scratches and dings. Inspection revealed that they were all purely cosmetic. So no worries! The one thing I was never able to get repaired was the read-out on the odometor. The guy who had the bike before me either rolled it back or shot it with a tazer (probably the former). The Daelim mechanics I've taken it to simply shake their heads at me.
(~20k, made in 1997)

SO HERE'S THE SCOOP:
I'm looking to sell her for 850,000KRW for the sake of raising money in efforts to unite North and South Korea this December.

Update! The demonstrations were a great success, the money from the purchase of this sale will go directly to an organization working to feed orphaned children within North Korea. They have made a variety of bread that helps provide nutrients for kids whose digestive tracts are too malnourished to process regular food.

But WAIT there's more!
If you order now I'll throw in a heart-throbbing green bicycle! The kind that you would see on an episode of MTV cribs! What's that? You don't like bicycles? No problem there! RAFFLE IT OFF TO YOUR STUDENTS FOR CHRISTMAS!
You'll win at everything!
Driving!
Teaching!
Selflessness!
Hotness!

So don't delay, make an investment for your summer!


**In regards to inquiries about delivery. Despite the impending frostbite that comes from driving in the winter, I am happy to deliver this bike. IF scheduling permits we can arrange a place and time ANYWHERE in the country. I've done road trips on this hog with two people and I've had a great time, I know you will too.

sorry to bust your bubble, but the bike is barely worth half what you're asking. Good luck selling it.

Thanks for the info mate! I appreciate your concern over the matter. I assure you though that this bike has been well maintained in my care. As for initial cost, I don't know where you're getting your numbers from, as far as I've seen there's nothing to justify your claim. But please feel free to provide me with some sources and I'll shut my trap

The bike is quality and does more than enough by way of transportation. It's great for road trips, has been an absolute bargain to repair. Rest assured, it's hard to part with; but I'm not in it for myself.

Cheers!

From Passo
There are a couple of heavily modified rat bikes going for 70 man, but the general asking price is 40 to 50 man. Some are as low as 20 or 30.

Anyway, good luck with the fundraising.

I agree....600,000 is about max for a Magma, regardless of what shape it's in.
