I've been looking for an Odyssey or Pilot for a while in my area, let me know your opinions on this one at this price. The owner says everything works except only has one light that only functions in low position, he says it runs well but did sit outside for part of its history.

The first one posted looks a bit crusty aka rust bucket! If it was sitting outside for most of its life the seat will be brittle and cracked, fenders will be brittle and cracked and who knows what shape the thing really is in. Chris has his running and has already done some of the work for you already!

Take the drive and meet Chis halfway.

I hate to burst your bubble but that is a myth....Odys that don't need anything don't exist! :-)

If you manage to find one in great shape, plan on paying around $3,500!

Agreed. You will never find one that "needs nothing". They are selling it for a reason. 9 times out of 10 its because there is something wrong with it, it runs crappy, it needs TLC, they're sick of fixing it, or they've made a temporary fix they know won't last.

If you buy a 2-stroke used, you MUST go through it. With the FL350, there is 29yrs of potential abuse, neglect, skillbilly work, and wrong-doings that can accumulate.

A complete non-running FL350 in decent shape (not a total rust bucket) is worth $1200-$1500
A complete runner in okay shape...$1500-$2200
A complete runner in great shape...$2000-$3500
A complete runner in great shape with goodies + spare parts...$3500-???

Just parts...at will-sell-prices...the things are worth $1200-$2000 depending on condition...
gearbox $250-$300
complete Engine (needs top end) $200-$300
complete Engine (running) $300-$450
axle, $125-$150 each
seat $85-$100
master cyl $85-$150
rear caliper $85-$120
rear shocks $75-$100
steering wheel $75-$125
CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) box $75-$100
bare frame $100-$250
Misc everything else $100-$200
