Good lord. Sounds like he wants someone else's bike that has already put all the money into it on aftermarket parts so he can come out like a champ.

Retail is for suckers. There's always a deal to be made.

He has several good points-a bike loses value the second you drive off and such.

He should just kind of mind his manners and leave a few things unsaid-like almost everything he said.

Or maybe....

He's the seller or a bike like that and is being sarcastic in posting up all the responses HE received about his bike, and all the reasons his potential buyers gave him why he should price it lower for them.

Responses? Zero!

This is what I catagorize as "documenting your stupidity!"

The motorcycle market in Albany/Corvallis is very thin, compared to up-state, and any bike in the area in that level of condition will be gone in a day or two to someone else who knows the market better, and at a market price above what he is offering.
