Located here in Las Vegas, I looked into this as a backup and finally decided to go another route. I will say that over all the Ody is in pretty good shape. Didn't show any signs of being rolled. Bone stock accept for the extra fuel tank up top. The guy is the second owner and has had it since 1987. He has never rebuilt the motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )). He is putting a brand new battery in it this week. He is down to 1500 dollars for it. Said if anyone tries to get him any lower he will just give it to his son. If any one is interested let me know. He does Have Title in Hand. When i met the guy he was an older gentleman and seemed really nice. He and his wife were in an RV accident several years back and both got broken backs. The Ody has sat for several years with out being ridden. He said he does start it up about every couple months though. He just had it serviced about 8 months ago. system flushed and put back up to good running order. I didn't get to hear it run but if someone is interested I will go back and check it out some more. Here are the pics.

Wow, nice looking machine for $1,500. I can't believe he hasn't already sold it before this. Things are tuff in Vegas when & clean one owner with a hitch needs to run a national ad. Wish I lived closer. Someone needs to pick this up for themselves or will he deliver to the NW corner?

Well, technically I'm an electrician. But I have an Aprilia SXV550 supermoto. Had a little mishap out on the track. Had to have shoulder surgery. I'm pretty much healed up now. Should be going back to work here with in the next couple of weeks.

Do you know if it has a clean registration,do you live close to this fellow?
I live in B.C. Canada to get it across border I have to give U.S. Customs at least 3 days to
check registration once that is done I could arrange shipping or drive down and pick it up
for that price either works.
Do you know any shipping companies in that area that I could contact?

Yes I remember him saying it has a clean title. I am not sure about the shipping company though. I haven't dealt with any. I am waiting on a response with his number. I do live close to him. But I am leaving town for Spain today and wont be back until the fourth. I will be checking my email though. Do u want to look into it more? Let me know

I would like a stock fl350 but I think I should finnish project I have first.
I am so tempted it is a great deal but the 21hr drive each way is a little tough and I don,t
know if my old ford pick up would make it.
Have fun in spain.

I am still working on the fl350 I have 2 quotes on shipping both a little high.
If I can get it shipped at a resonable rate would you look after it at that end for me,and if so what would you need for your service.
I don't like the thought of another good fl350 being sold on ebay as parts.

Hmmmm. I don't need paid for my services. I just wanted to help the guy sell his Ody. I was hoping to work a deal with him on the trailer. cause i need one bad. But he isn't really budging on the price. I was hoping to help any one out on the forums to get a smokin deal on a Ody. This is the best "family forum" I've ever run across. So its always nice to help out when I can. What is the best shipping price quote you have been given?

March 4th don't you. I am going to keep trying I have been told there is more than one way to skin a cat or get an fl350 from Vegas to B.C.
Hope your enjoing your stay in Spain.

Oh yeah for sure. The weather here is so sweeeeeeeet! Yes I will be back on the 4th. Keep me posted and Thanks.
Hoping to catch up with the only guy in Spain that has a Pilot. "as far as we know" lol. Even if we just meet up to shake hands take a pic and say hi. It will feel good to know that there is life outside of the states that is from the forum and they can see we care.

I am jealous it is snowing in Delta B.C. today not much about an inch.
My daughter has her first home game tomorrow college softball.
She is in her final year at Chadron State College in Chadron Nebraska.
The team had to shovel all the remaining snow off the field today.
I hope the weather holds for them.
I thought the weather was sweeet in Vegas on the 9th,10,11,12,and 13 of Feb T shirt weather.
Have fun .

that's how I came by Eagles17.
Her team is Chadron Eagles and she is #17
