http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=339220958Certainally it wouldn't be for your marketing skills, stating that you've had an accident but not stating that it wasn't on this bike will leave some people thinking it's a rebuilt bike and your piccies are no more informative as to what you're getting than a brochure is...

Sooner the better, the main pic having the mrs on it is very recognisable, so if it was me looking and i'd been thrown off by thinking that it had been crashed i'd avoid the ad all together and not look at it again, so would see that pic and move to the next ad thinking 'oh not that one it's been crashed" kinda thing........
May pay to change it straight after reading this post.......maybe just adding in 'in a car crash-not on the bike' - so "Sadly due to an accident where I broke my back in a car crash-not on the bike requiring subsequent major spinal surgery", or something to that effect.
You are obviously in no hurry to sell, and i'm sure you know this anyway but if you can get it registered it will make it more attractive to purchasers obviously, it's only losing money sitting in the shed so you may as well sell it for as much as you can get for it as soon as you can, you're burning money otherwise.

I say, "Let it burn!" The longer it takes to sell, the closer I get to being able to ride again and the financial advantage, (house maintenance/repairs), will have sorted itself out, and Mrs. Bear will be less concerned... :innocent:

The only bad publicity is "no" publicity (ask any politician) but the objective (or is it?) is to "sell the bike"! :yes:
So far that hasn't happened! :facepalm:
Interesting market out there! :shifty: (So many "Clayton's" sales on offer!)

It expired and I've relisted now, still getting a lot of views on it!
I tried on my Boulevard jacket today, and it fits! I haven't been able to wear it since I bought the bike in Feb. '07! I might be tempted to offer it with the bike if anyone was really keen...
