For fuck sake have we spent enough time bawling about this bike yet? Giving it exposure isn't the way to devalue it!! My .02, adjusted for inflation.

Screw that guy.
He should be openly mocked at all times.
Only people that should be mocked more are the ones that think it is a good bike and try and copy it.

I agree I'd just hate to see the topic bring a buyer.

Yes that bike is a complete pile of shit! Most bratarded bikes are.

How could anyone possibly read through this thread and then actually want to buy this thing. If this thread motivates them to buy it then they deserve it.
I messaged the guy and told him there were 21 watchers but no one was bidding because the price was so low they thought something might be wrong with it and he should raise his price. He thanked me for the advice and then lowered the price. When no one bids on the new price I will message him again and remind him the price should have been raised not lowered.

I've put it on watch, hope he doesn't notice i'm all the way down in australia, he might not take me seriously..........should i bid too?

Seller gets no info on the watchers other than the number of watchers. The new listing shows no watchers.

Same guy sold this one for more than it's worth. It was posted here and heavily mocked as well.

He did a turd job of the bmw too, but he started with a bike that people see as more valuable. He got paint on the petcock for fuck sake. Let the scumbag hipsters buy his vomit. They don't have to do the work, so they'll pay.

And he somehow thinks the Honda is worth 50% more than the Bimmer? Bimmer paint is full of trash and fisheyes and orange peel. And who actually thinks a 1" brake light is a safe thing?

[Tune-A-Fish]

[o1marc]

The code name for the buyer is different than the code name of the buyer who left feedback for that bike.

[Tune-A-Fish]

Is there a way to let ebay know that?

Anyone with 1/2 a brain knows the airhead is over priced.

Down East, you must be in Canada? It was in the NY CL, but they are in Hartford Ct.
IMHO, another delusional seller. 6 non running incomplete Nortons and he wants $25k for the lot.
