checked doesn't qualify as AutoChecked Assured, there's a problem on the title,lien record reported to autocheck,salvage record to autocheck,insurance loss reported to autocheck,corrected title report to autocheck......but since the car is only $3,500 and it's a honda accord LX(1995), 94,000 mileage, is it still worth it to buy this car? please help!

I'm signing up for the Rider's Edge saftey program through a local harley dealership and obviously I want to buy a bike. I want a harley, because its a harley. My question is, would a Sportster 1200 be too much bike for someone brand new to motorcycles? I really don't want to go the Shadow 250 suggestions that I read about, but obviously I don't want to die or destroy a great bike learning to ride.

6'0 tall, 195 fairly athletic pounds....absolutely BRAND new to motorcycles though.

Comments?

I have spent lots of money trying to get it to stop. Wheel balancing, ball joints, alignment; U joints checked. I was told could be drive train(to check, put in neutral on road and see if still vibrates and it does, which means not drive train??). I was told the wheel balancing would show if tire out of round????. Could it possibly be motor mounts or maybe still the tires (wheels), even though I was told no? How do you check the motor mounts if they could be the cause. thanks for any help. I'm totally confused.

I am looking at buying a old-school chopper (1969 BSA Thunderbolt). Just talked to guy about it. Said ti was designed as a bar-hopper / cruiser. Now, the only thing that is noticeably wrong is the head gasket is leaking. He says he just got it serviced (less then 200miles ago) and that he used a copper gasket. He mentioned retorqueing / tightening the head bolts. If it is just a leak at the head gasket is it a relatively easy fix it could this be a syumptom of a more serious problem?

If I can fix it with retorqueing or a new gasket and some high-temp sealant that would be great. I wouldn't mind a old-school bar-hopper.

The thing is i am able to choose between both but as i read somewhere the only difference in bth devices is the weight and dimensions, is that right? I even read something about the new CPU being slower than the previous one, that really made me go for the Classic. If you have some experience in them please help me!

Thank you!

I will be studying in the USA during 1 year , so I need a 4x4 autombile , that I will be able to resell a year after I bought it loosing the minimum amount of money on the transaction.

Of course I need it to be reliable during the year I own it.
What is the oldest model I should get, Are there 1 year used car leases? Will certified Pre Own lose a lot of its value when I try to resell the car?

Thanks
