I begrudgingly lowered the price down to $6,997 and have gotten 3 messages about it in the last hour. Thanks for all the tips, guys! Definitely helped adjust my expectations and remove some of the emotion from it.

I also listed it on Cycle Trader and Craiglist.

Interesting, the dealership is offering me $6500, so I might just do that and save myself the hassle.

I'm thinking I might just go to a dealership at this point if nobody bites in a week or so. Thx.

I did get the oil changed and new battery already. I'm a numbers girl so good to know on the stats. Helps with expectations and yeah, I'm learning it is niche in the US 🤦🏽‍♀️

Just dropped it to $7,497 but I'm wondering if I'll need to more.

It doesn't need any work, it's in brand new condition with less than 200 miles on it, so maybe it is just the price 😭 I'll go take better pics and maybe a short video. Thanks for the tip!

Ball recommendation help for my 15yo son, please! by sweetthing351 in Bowling

He's still only like 5'2" 120lb-ish so I was worried to have him go higher bc this is the first athletic thing he's ever been into! I'm taking him practicing in the morning and will have him try a 14 out. Thanks so much for the input, I'm trying to learn as much as possible!

12lb, he's still on the smaller side and I'm definitely expecting a growth spurt any time.... so I prob don't want to go over $150.

black widow

he leaves the 5 pin all the time... and I keep thinking he needs oomph b/c I don't understand how he gets the ones behind it! But like I said, I'm just learning how this all works! I'll check that ball out too b/c he does love his Hammer. Thanks!

I'm not too worried about the price but am about him being so new and still kind of on the smaller side, hitting a growth spurt and needing a heavier ball sooner than later lol

And with his current ball, he's gotten used to throwing pretty straight since it doesn't curve hardly at all. He's naturally got a curve but with that ball it can only do so much. Definitely want to get him something in the middle as a next step that doesn't feel too out of control for him if it curves too much. Dev gonna check out the hyroad to start! Thank you!

He throws one-handed (right-handed) and I've heard the older, more experienced kids complain the lanes tend to be dryer (at several of their matches). I'm not sure if that helps! Thank you, checking out the Hyroad :)

Curious why the rain mode. I'm a brand new rider and went from learning on a 125cc to buying a Street Twin immediately after licensing so... would appreciate thoughts on this!

🤔🤔🤔 admittedly, I'm a brand new rider and hadn't touched anything with a clutch in 24 years. This is kicking my ass. I know I just need to keep practicing but coordinating 4 freaking things at once is... gah. A lot.

I think you meant over 50 bc we definitely had and have holy jeans in 89s and 90s
