Is he looking for a basic commuter? Will he be able to find parts?

Good luck. Parts were hard to come by before the shut down. I'd call them and see what kind of stuff they have in stock first, maybe talk to them about how often they are getting new stuff for the Blast.
Bottom line is they are solid bikes.

The Blast is a slug.

I'm talking anything at all. I know not a lot of parts were interchangable between the 500 and 1200s. So, if anything breaks he may be SOL when it comes to getting it fixed.
I'm not saying this is necessarily the case, but it is something to look into. |

here is the sled he is trading for
http://albany.craigslist.org/rvs/1586429899.html and as for it being a slug thats not that big of a deal because he doesnt have much riding experience he owned a bike for a short period a few years ago but still has a lot of learning todo |

Tell him to look for a Ninja 500 instead.
