OK I found a 2005 Sixty-five that I'm really interested in and before I contact the seller I'd like so advice on what to ask him. What do yall think of this bike? Any and all thought would be really appreciated this may be my first RE!

Ok, first issue.
That's not a Bullet Sixty-5.
It's a Bullet Classic Deluxe ES with a 5-speed..
Basically the same bike as a Sixty 5 in the powertrain, but has the Deluxe bodywork package. The Classic Deluxe has chrome fenders and tank, and all the classic models have the tubular fork covers, and not the rubber fork gaiters.
So, that's a nice year with the right features, and a nice looking Bullet Deluxe bodywork, but it's not a Sixty-5.
However, it's just as good as a Sixty-5, if you like that Deluxe bodywork.
OR, if it was a Sixty-5 at one time, it has been converted to a Classic deluxe bodywork for some reason.
There's no reason to be put-off, because it's really just a body styling difference, and the bikes should be the same.
Just letting you know what you are looking at.
