    Careful reading shows that bike in the picture is not the actual bike. It is a picture of A stripped down stock 78 XS11, his has a full touring setup on it. No picture of it that I could see.
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

      This looks like the original ad:


      Looks like the seller was trying to part it out too:

        Sort of wonder what the actual bike looks like. Maybe it is camera shy

          Wtf?

          Sounds a little suspect to me??? One day it is a complete bike for sale, next day it is a parts bike, and today the picture is of another bike that is not his.

          I sent a request to him asking for more info and additional pictures. I would like to find out what is up with this one. Oh, have not heard a word back yet.

          We will see what happens.
