Indeed the guy who is supoed to look at it today is a farm hand who needs a commuter bike that he can ride out on the dirt and gravel farm access roads too. He is mechanically inclined so this may be a good bike/deal for him.

I'd rather lose some money (indeed any Earthly posession) than disappoint God and take advantage of anyone in this (or any) transaction.
It's my pleasure to know you, Doc.
