I found a guy who has a Vision r 40 and a Bike E AT for sale he wants $500 each. Is this a good deal? Are these good bikes? He said one bike has very low miles and the other one has been used a fair amount but both are in good shape. Its a 200 mile round trip drive. So are these worth taking a look at?

I sold my Vision R45 for 500 and got a almost new BikeE CT for $300 and a new BikeE Ct for $450.
Both these companies are OUT OF BUSINESS.

I think the BikeE AT has a shock, this is not a value added item, because it requires maintenance and can even fail, losing air pressure and dropping you down. The shock also is heavy and slows you down.

Offer $500 for both.

Thanks for the tip. I found out these are around 1997 models so there a bit high for the age .
