  • On e-bay...

    Hey all! I just wanted to let you know that I threw my bike on e-bay, in case anyone wants to watch. The price is perhaps a little high, but I am not too motivated to sell, and wanted to see how it would do. Makes for good watching, anyhow! Here is the link:

    Healthy is merely the slowest rate at which you can die

    Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better. I’ve always believed this, in spite of the trouble it’s caused me. Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba….Hunter S. Thompson

    I've always liked that one. Wish I could take it off your hands.

        I don't see why it wouldn't bring $2500. PM me your reserve if you want, I'd love to know. I really enjoy watching my ebay auctions. When they sell.
        Are you getting more than 10% of your views as watchers?
        Notice ole492 has three bikes up on the xs search. He's got his sh*t together.

            I changed my mind, you may get the reserve out of it.
            I looked at the picks up close and it's beter than I remember. Still don't understand why you didn't list it as an xs 1st and a cafe 2nd. People that know xs's are the ones that like them. (wish I would have listed the super xs as a cafe, maybe i'd have got some cash for it)
            I think maybe you'r embaressed of us.
            What happened to that 1st little bike you did for your girl?

              No, I am not ashamed of my 'first' motorcycle family!!! I have actually referred a couple of the potential buyers here to check on the longevity and quality of these bikes, so you may be getting another member anyway...

              I have actually sold the XS360. It brought a premium of $2000 without any advertising. I let it be known that it was for sale, and it sold! (So much for the naysayers who said I would reduce the value by my modifications...I bought it for a third what I sold it for!) She wanted something a little more roadable, but was certainly glad for the eye appeal, and small size/ weight on which to learn. She is certainly ready for the next step!
