it just leads to frustration:

I agree! Ebay is frustrating on so many levels. Not to mention if you are dealing with a first time seller for a bike…..ugh no fun. I restored a '71 SL70 but have another one that I've been holding off on restoring bc of many factors. First, it runs well with a brand new 125cc Lifan motor in it, it's more a fun offroad bike bc the shocks installed on it are for an XL100, and it has offroad tires. Needless to say, it's a great offroad bike and lots of fun…could even be good for snowdays!

Nice!

I'm new to the forums and know I should post it in classified but I do want to let you know that it is available if interested…Anyway, yes Ebay should be strayed away from (although it's hard sometimes when you see a bike you want so bad and it has a low price…but the last 15 mins I always see the price go up at least a grand!! )
