Yo Jeff,
You should send a PM to Mark Avis (Marvin on this site) about the first bike on your list as he just went to check it out and took a bunch of close up photos. I know a little history on this bike. It's a ScootRS.com restoration and was originally brought into the country by a girl from Victoria, her name escapes me right now. She moved to Vancouver maybe 4 years ago and was riding it quite regularly. I guess she sold it to it's current owner about 2-3 years ago. I remember seeing the bike parked under the Granville st. bridge right after it was hit by the car. From what I remember (and I think Mark came to the same conclusion) it wasn't a very high speed crash and it's really only body work that was smashed up.
If your friend is looking for something on the cheap that's a bit of a fixer upper, I have a early 80's 100 sport that runs but needs some love'n.
Good luck,
Tim

Jodi. Dennis may know a bit of the bikes history while she owned it. Looks pretty banged up for the amount the seller is asking?
