Hello,
Bike is in perfect shape. NO ACCIDENTS. NO DENTS. NO SCRATCHES.NO CRACKS. NO DAMAGE. Kept inside. It is in showroom condition. All service - on time. BIKE IS ROAD READY.
Used only on limited weekend basis in the summer.The bike has a clear title.
I will provide you all the papers you need for the bike together with the CLEAR Title.This will be transferable to your name.
I want to let you know that i just married and i decided to follow my wife in London,UK. I took the bike with me thinking to register here, but when i saw how big registration taxes are here, i decided that is better to sell it within USA space, is even cheaper for me to deliver it in USA than to register here.
The price for the bike is $3900 including all the shipping taxes, insurance and handling to your home address.You can call me if you want.
Thank you for your prompt response and I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Jannis

So anyway. I just him an e mail that I want to buy the bike. So when he replies he is in London I'm gonna say I have family there and will be there in a few days for a wedding and want to come see the bike. :moon

I had this same thing happen to me when I was looking for a bike. The one I had was for a R1 I think. The ad said that it was in Long Beach and I was going to drive down to look at it and possibly buy it, cuz I think the asking price was like $4000 or something. So the guy emails me back and says that the bike is located in Chicago, IL but if i want it, he can ship it to me and I can decide if I like it and if not just sent it back to him....RIGHT. So I email him back and say well that's great, I have family and friends there in Chicago. I ask where in Chicago he is and I will have my buddy check it out for me and if it looks good, have my buddy give him the cash for it. The a**hole never replied to my last email. Also, the # that he gave me was a false # as well. It is fun to mess with people like that though.
