So we discuss the ins and outs of buying a used bike, and give some tips on how to negotiate. In other news, Nak is back on his bike! And the first thing he did after recuperating from a broken collar bone? A wheelie, what else!? But the biggest news is that Bagel showed up to the garage on a Buell Blast. ???
