I'm interested in this 07 BD Mastiff for 15500 with 3600 miles on it and I contacted BDM and they said they said According to there records, the engine has not been broken in properly. does anyone know what that means

Not broken in properly could mean a lot of things...rev hits, no recorded service, etc. Basically check the overall condition of the bike and how it runs and rides. If you are still liking it after that, then I would have a competent mechanic check it out really good, possibly do a compression check and any other checks the mechanic suggest. That should help you make up your mind whether or not you're comfortable with purchasing this bike. Just remember, these are high performance machines and they do require care! These are just some of my thoughts.

Well I just found out that it was laid down and he replaced all the parts that were scratched. Any suggestings? should i leave it alone? I might be able to get him down to 15,000 he is at 15,500 right now for it!

So, 'the engine has not been broken in properly' and it's been down...It already has too much history for me to give $15k for it!

I'm glad that you did your research abnmechny. Sounds like the previous owner might have abused this pup. Be careful with this one... :D

There is soooo many Big Dogs out there at pretty good deals right now...I would probably pass on this one...too many negatives for me...just my opinion though.
