#1 Skip, that's a sub $2k bike IMO.

#2 has the mods most riders do or want to do but yellow wheels?

#3 should be in the best condition but price is a high ($4400) for a bone stock 98

3 would be my pick, but the price is a little high. Don't buy #1, it looks like a bunch of problems you don't want. I'd take it if the price were around 1500.

Agree with above. Also, if #3 is bone stock, you will still have to do the rectifier/regulator and CCT changeouts as well...

Definitely stay away from a salvage title. Possible frame or other unseen damage.

#1 - stay away
#2 - decent but hard to tell from description and pics
#3 - seems like the best bet

I'd take a look and #2 and #3 and go from there

Always stay away from a salvage cause you never really know what your getting
