Sounds about right for that setup. That is a good looking 90' SJ. Somebody should snap that up. Sorry to hear that you are selling though. Take a breather and then get something newer better.:biggthumpup:

hey lance sorry to hear you're thinking of getting out of the sport for now...its crossed my mind as well a few times..but if i sold my ski i think all my friends would beat me within an inch of my life till i bought another one.....but on another note if you decide to get rid of it let me know...i think i know someone who would be interested......

and if it does have to go...you're always more than welcome to take mine out for a ride.

my advice is keep it but don't spend so much on it unless you ride for a living - assign a budget for it and don't go over. sell other things you do not use to pay for its mods. if you are in school and trying to save money be sure to pay yourself (save money in a savings account). too many folks fail to pay themselves, because they pay everyone else and leave no CASH for themselves. fortunately there are such things as 401's & IRA's or i'm guessing people would otherwise not have that money later in life...
