Very common and you're seeing a combination of people on Craigslist smoking crack thinking their shit is made of gold, and prices skyrocket around here when the sun pokes out for the first time in 4 months. The best time to buy is generally Nov-March, but you'll still see the occasional genuinely good deal if you're patient.

Best time to buy and find smoking deals is the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas. There are a ton of overpriced bikes sitting on CL for months, sometimes even years. I simply ignore them.

Nothing wrong with the bike in the ad, just bored at the airport and the unnecessary suffix made me LOL.

Yeah, LOL, for sure. I love it...great catch!

However, for $5500 hunny, I have seen better looking and better QPR bikes.

You guys leave it alone! I want it for a training bike!

For every BN125 that is removed from my training fleet, an angel gets their wings!

Looks like a rattle can to me. Must have powder coated the kickstart shaft and rubber too! HAHAHA! Jeebus. I also don't buy the "rebuilt from the ground up".

Kawasaki KZ650

where you not going to mention the sun he drew in on one of the pictures? Best part of the ad imo.

I know, I know... it's not a bike, but I couldn't not post it.

Non toxic, riiiight. Silver poisoning is pretty dangerous, turns your skin blue and shuts down your organs

I wouldn't drink it personally but it does kill bacteria.

The one harley I wouldn't mind owning, but like other harleys, it comes at a hefty price. This one will set you back 90k

1972 Harley-Davidson XR750TT

Odd that the XRTT is advertised in Washington County but the map shows a location southwest of Medford. Nice vintage racer though but tuning those (and the flat tracker XR) takes a lot of skill.

Edit: Looked at their website. Quite a few high quality collection of bikes and cars.
