Alls I know is that my membership date stayed the same but my post count hit the floor and everything is "paid" this and "paid" that.

What really pissed me off is even before VS they had paid off topic forums. You couldnt talk off topic without paying them.

Wow, getting LOTS of people interested in the bike but there seems to be a lot of indecision. Mostly younger folks that want it but don't have any $$. Why would you waste your and my time if you have only $1000 for a bike that is listed for $3K?

Low ballers are the worst when it comes to bike sales. List for 4k?....hey, I'll give you 1500.

Ok, so assuming that someone actually comes to look at it... how are you supposed to handle a "test ride?" My inclination is to say no, start it up, sit on it, I'll get the industrial floor fan to blow your hair but you're not taking the bike and wrecking it.

Is that wrong?

I'm always weary of test rides. I've got a no ride policy. Some guys will allow rides if the potential buyer has CASH in hand. But I wouldn't. Maybe even take it for a spin up and down the road for him. But I personally wouldnt let someone ride it.

Money in hand, if they wreck it/they own it. Only way I would do that. Even then, I would say sign BoS first.
