    From my own neighborhood, this 1986 Goldwing owner feels it runs fine and is a good deal at $1400. Lets go to the replay, shall we?

    "Great running bike...it's old..it needs a good cleaning..but everything works and it runs better than most bikes...I would ride this bike anywhere....it jumps out of 4th when you put the throttle on...it will do fine in 4th for slowing down...it usually bypass 4th while starting out...great price for a good running bike..."

    1989 Dodge Dakota (the perfect Oregon work truck)
    1980 Sears "Free Spirit" bicycle (original patina and everything!)
    1978 "The Executive" RV (vintage like its owner)

    How can I be in two places at once when i'm not anywhere at all?

    Can I double park in a parallel universe?

            Virtually every ad like this has the same phrase in it; the carbs need adjusting. How is it you spend hours doing the hack job but find no time to finish the carbs? Sheesh!

            "Over the last 2 years I have ripped the bike apart..."

            Yes you did.

              $4000.......oh but it doesn't have any brakes.... and oh ya, I haven't touched it in over a year so it probably doesn't run. BUT IT'S AN AWESOME BIKE.....

                  No, it's $4,000 in his imagination.

                    Nice... if it had a tailsection, I'd consider it a decent looking bike. it would be funny if someone told him they would give asking price...... If they could test tide it.

                      That one's kind of sad. I think the bike on the bottom is what he started from. I remember it was posted for sale last year from earlier owner along with a pretty decent looking black one as parts bike...

                            Those seats are actually ALIEN larva, that take over weak humanoid minds.
