I would be interested to see a "Pearl White Edition" cbr.

In all seriousness I would be skeptical as that is pretty cheap.

Dibs, you accept MasterVisa?




That's a scam btw, eBay has no such "escrow" service.

WATCH OUT!!! I saw the same scam i believe it was on craigslist or cycle trader. I emailed the guy and he said something about his pod has to be shipped and also he is located in ALASKA doesnt it get pretty cold out there to ride a crotch rocket??? And i talked to my friend about that deal he laughed and told me its a scam i gave him my number to call and instead he sent me a really long email

How did you send the money? If it was credit card/debit card, CANCEL that card right away or call the bank and report it stolen and don't tell them about the bike purchase. If it was check, CANCEL it IMMEDIATELY. If you paid cash.......well, God help you that you get it back.

Yep, it smells of a scam, and I really do wish you the best of luck with it man. And as a Moderator of this site, let me be the first to apologize with how rude and blunt some of the responses have been so far. Again, good luck man.
