Here is my email conversation with him...not sure if I overstepped, but in my experience the majority CL sellers in Vancouver/Victoria/Lower Mainland are just so freakin' unrealistic about the value of goods. His response is in blue

It is in fully running condition. The work it needs is minor.

So THIS is worth 3k?

> I'm not trying to give you a hard time, but you are going to have a really hard time selling your bike at that price. If you want to sell it before winter sets in and you start running into problems with winterizing it for storage, you should probably have another look around to see what a more appropriate selling price. If it sits in that condition over the winter, you are going to have a lot more work to do on it in the spring

4100 bucks? For a bike that exudes Jokerism? This clown (it is a clown bike, afterall) has got to be full of himself.

Because grass is nice and soft?

fukk no, it's not even worth half that. I own a pair of xs850's and the local shop owner told me to tie them together and throw them in the river because they're obsolete POS's. I half agree with him

[spchips]

Had one of these - bought it for nothing, sold it for $500. The buyer paid too much. Decent bike but the GS's are far more stable.
