You need to look for my 929 which I'm selling, please be in New england!

Anyways, nothing really sticks out as something to really watch for. The 929 seems to be pretty stout. 26k miles on mine with out a hitch. Just check that both the recalls were done on the bike, you can find 2 punch marks on the side of the frame, below the tank on the right side. If both marks are there, both recalls are done.

What else I have noticed, the lower bolt holes on the upper right fairing will stress crack. Also the clutch cable can chaffe where it goes around the ignition cyl. Both of these are normal, not really a sign of neglect or problems.
