How about a GoFundMe page that everyone contributes $ to, the video gets posted here after the "target" donation is reached, and then Trench can donate that money to the SOHC Forum? Everyone WINS!!!

But, we surely need good video of the bike and "Seller" and a transcription of the conversation had.

I'm in for $10  :)

I think I found a gopro.  I will try not to disappoint.  I'm working Saturday and sundays weather is sunny 45f with a low of 27.  sunday it is

Remember he's got this secret card that the police gave him which lets him speed and blow through lights and stop signs without recourse. Maybe ask him to borrow it for the test ride.

Is this the guy that had the 450's that he would chase down any 750 with? I'm thinking I knew some of his posts but I don't recall as much bovine excrement as what you suggest here.  I guess I missed out on this.

armed with your gopro Mr Trench, we could have a live video feed of you calmly pivoting around and riding majestically backwards to the Willde ones place. Been there done that, it was neither majestic, nor much fun.
