I'm going to look at a 2000 x1 Lightning tomorrow. It's got around 16k miles and looks to be mostly stock. What problem areas should I look for?

Thanks

Look for the elusive nuclear blue / molten orange X1. Those are the fastest.

I'm a painter so I can make it whatever color I want. That is a beautiful bike, I hope mine looks that good someday.

Wow, that is a sweet X1. I fear the day any bike maker does up anything like that again is way over. Wow.
