Sh8, me too, but the pics are on the 'other bikes thread under 'more turd wrangling.' Bought it the day I got on a plane, paid too much, 6,000 miles, running and tagged,  can't wait to get home and ride it.

 Looks like the same bike that's in your forum pic? If so, buy it and ride it.

It doesn't have to depreciate much or at all in some cases if you take care of it. You can ride a bike hard and use it a lot without ruining it.

Should be on the 11oclock news with the gas fumes in my living room if I dare light a smoke ! Just insured and swap the permit so one more night then in the apartment underground.I used plastic and duct tape on the vent but the vapour still finds a way through  the PO filled the tank up for me yes I know the fire triangle but there is no way in my neighbourhood that I would leave it out side Just the couple hrs Sunday a lot of strangers took notice Just  for scrap value of aluminium
