Lowest mile 98 SH is mine!!
I have just purchased a 98 with 2,900 miles on it.. Carbs are clogged, clutch has an issue (seems to be slipping, clutch canbe left out fully in first)and I need tires and want a louder exhaust so I will be spending lots of time on here.

Great to get such a low mileage bike. I expect your clutch issues could be a clogged master cylinder compensation port (the iddy biddy one) that won't release fluid pressure after the lever is squeezed. I'd hope you have plans to do a fair bit of maintenance on that, mechanical bits like the valves etc should be fine but any of the fluids or tyres would be highly suspect.

Between cash and trade I paid $3,200 for it. I plan to change all the fluids and tires and anything else it needs ASAP and ride it til the wheels fall off. I’m trying to secure a loud set of slipons like D&D, Two Brothers, Yosh etc so if anyone has a set in new or newer condition let me know.
