Why is it limited edition? And when did the F3 make 130HP???? I think something is a little off.

There are "Smoking Joe" replicas that are technically limited edition, but this guy is off. That bike looks like a wanna be clone, and I also don't believe those hp numbers.

"The bike also has 60 yellow L.E.D's mounted around the bike."
This alone would have me raising an eyebrow over this poser bike. Also, look at how the honda wing is backwords! At least the price isn't too crazy...

^^ the 60 led all over the bike thing seemed off for sure.

Also a bunch of "little" after market things done to it" Just something else I don't think is an accurate description when trying to sell something

im in columbus, we should get a group ride going when it warms up.


that cl listing is deff a little off, the guy is just trying to make it sound much btter than it is, and i cant blame him, some one will believe him and buy it, its not unusual, i make money doing almost the same thing, i dont exaggerate that much though.

Not to jack a thread, but I feel a little insulted over that remark. Are you saying lights are poser? From a fellow Wisconsinite as well? Wow.
