Looks like he was foolish enough to leave out brat. Including those three words is like throwing a steak in a lions den...somebody's going to bite.

I don't understand why people refuse to put photos on CL. That's one of my biggest pet peeves. :mad:

Me too. Maybe they think that what they are offering is so compelling that they don't need to. Either that or it's so ugly they don't want to discourage people from calling.
 
Or some need to be less picky.
You have to work for some deals.

Im just glad so many are not willing to do any leg work.
Means more real deals for me...

This is true, also a lot of folks really don't know how to post picks. I have called on a few adds with just a number to find a great deal on more than motorcycles. Little old lady who barely muddled through getting the add placed on a public pc and wonders why no one wanted to buy her $100 set of almost brand new winter tires she didn't need cause she couldn't drive anymore. Tires were mounted, balanced on steel wheels and worth 900+ new, used them 3 winters and still going strong.

Yea, I mean a perfect mint one with low miles I could see going for $2500 or a little more. Most in this condition (as best I can tell from the pics) don't go for more than $1500

This one might be a bargain. . .

Yeah some times you have to work for a deal.
They are not all waiting for you on a silver platter.
And now way to many people watch way to much TV. They are think they are going to retire buying and selling junk.

Personally the web isn't were the deals are.
Friend just bought a Norton that just needs to be lightly serviced for $2k.
I am looking at a 1978 CBX that is beautiful for $3500

Trick is to go out and actually do shit. Sitting on CL hitting the refresh key so you can score something only to post pictures about it on the web is uber lame. Go out, ride, meet people, talk to them, have experiences.

Nope, that's not a MiniBike. It just is a small bike.
The SL70s have little value
 
And the seller says only for buyers who's balls have not dropped..... So it's a kid's bike. ;-)

look at completed listings on ebay, they are quite valuable if you consider what they are worth in value,that is........
