He attempted to post some pictures of Harley's to prove how ugly they were, but posted a Suzuki Boulevard and Kawasaki Vulcan by mistake.

Thats hilarious!

Wow, I'm amazed this clown is still making the rounds. How is this still a thing years later? I guess he knows no shame.

He's not entirely wrong.  One day, Harley will mix up their recipe and develop a bike and accessories package with the right young market appeal.

Really curious to find out if the hd adv machine will be light on it's feet or not.
I'm curious how the Street series is selling. I figured it'd be a big seller at the price point they put it at.

Aside from the fact they had a global recall of almost all models made between certain dates - I dunno. That was a while ago, tho. I will say I see a lot of them where I live. Mostly semi-customed out to look more like a bigger bike. But hey, two wheels is always better, yeah?

I always liked the V-Rod. Shame it was shunned by the "Harley crowd."

Can’t seem to find it. I KNOW he bombarded us with his Instagram last time he was here but I don’t know if he has this time.

 But the wording is almost like a cut and paste. '72 CB750, carbs been on the bike since new, have a new set, new manifolds,  asking about air box and linkage.... just too similar,  to me.

 My bet is he's not getting any answers here so he made up yet another alias to ask the same question there.

 Ha! He deleted the entire thread when I put up a link to the eBay auction. Plus, I contacted the eBay seller and he confirmed that it was NOT him posting on DTT.

Why give this fool the time of day and waste your time with him answering questions and playing along with his attention seeking behavior?  Claims to have 5 bikes, I don't believe it.

Want to know when he is lying, most likely just like with a politician... His lips are moving / he's posting "material"

 In case you missed it, he created a new profile and claimed to be 19 years old and just got his first bike, a 1972 CB750 (* to mark the coincidences). It had carb issues*. but the carbs had been on the bike since 1972*. He had new, rebuilt carbs* (though I think he claimed they were NOS).
 His dad gave him the bike because of back issues, but he didn't live with his dad; he lived with his mom (profile said Scottsdale, AZ).
 He had new rubber and manifolds*, and asked if he should just cut the old rubber*. He had never swapped a carb rack before* and asked if he had to mess with the air box* and linkage*.
 Said the carbs were already jetted and asked if he "needed to bench sync them once they were installed".
 Some of the wording was almost like he cut and pasted it from his thread(s) here. I asked him how he got the bike to Scottsdale from the U.K. so quickly, since the eBay auction was up until yesterday. He also edited every single post, which is another hallmark of his.

 He did this exact same thing on the XS650 forum. When those guys sussed him out and had enough of his attitude, he created a profile and said he was from CT and had just bought his XS from "some hipster in New York" and asked the same questions he was asking under his other profile.

Yes, he is (for the moment) here as Honda3. He's VintageMBike on DTT (the profile that hasn't been banned yet, but the mods are aware that it's JWilde). He was CandyGold for a couple of hours last night.
 There's something seriously wrong with this guy.
