I thought $120.00 seemed a little high for a used one, but a brand new one from TRD Sparks is $180.00 plus shipping, so it's not a terrible deal I guess.

It varies, but in my mind, a good used product should start at around half of retail.
In this case, the product doesn't wear and a very limited to non-existent market makes pricing hard

Got the old one off and the new one on. Old one is in the box with the removal/installation guide.

Lemme know what works for you. I can ship it, or we can meet up some weekend (Thursday's thru Saturdays), I'm in St. Louis area and willing to drive to Bloomington area.

I saw your post, congrats!
I figured you could probably get by without taking off the cowling

Shipping probably works best as arranging something can be tough with my kid always causing schedule changes; Bloomington is not a short drive for you, but I can wait for a while if you'd like.

Or just take a guess at shipping costs and Msg me and I'll paypal ya or however you'd like :)

tell ya what, I'll go to UPS and get a quote for shipping it and get that to you, and then you can decide, because I will be headed up past that way Oct 8th (Columbus day weekend) and back down on that Sunday.

Okay, sounds good. You could try online too. My guess is the box dimensions are gonna over write the weight so you won't even need an accurate weight
My zipper is 6 1 7 3 9
I was wondering if the oversize charge might make it worth waiting for a drop off
