Local Craigslist ad

Not the funniest thing ever, but you have to love the way he words it:
Bike is in good shape and runs great , has a Vetter fairing and trunk and a custom seat. Paint and tires are good. There is a knock, but I think it's just a rod bearing. This is a great touring bike, very comfortable and fast.

JUST a rod bearing? Like it's no big deal?  :D :D At least he was honest.

Yeah, "...paint and tires are good"  means the paint (latex) and the tires (only bald in the middle) are good.

those things are a nightmare to work on. at least i thought it was.
Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.
