    "Special tire cleaning product" = Tyre shine.

    Why run Avgas through it. 95 or 98 will be plenty.

    And this is what it looks like when you crash your bike and trade it in. Note the wrong headlights, really badly fitting fairing, wrong badges and case covers to cover the scratches.

    They seem to have cranked up the fees for pulling a listing.

    I sold a pushbike a few weeks back, after managing to get contact details past the trademe nazis in the Q&A so the buyer could come and have a look, best option for not paying extra for the privilege of selling was to adjust the buy now price to what we agreed and have the guy hit the button on his phone while I was talking to him.

    I wonder why the facebook marketplace is going so well.....

    I sold a pushbike a month or so ago for $650, which I thought was not bad (paid $850, rode it twice didnt like it). Until I realised that greedy cunts had charged me $51 "success fee". Yes, we know who had the success there.

    I've not bought anything yet on the faecesbook markets because the punters seem to be idiots who cant take a photo or string an english sentence together. My view is that if you can't write a paragraph you probably cant check your oil or tyres or whatever - or you're dishonest. Either way I am not interested.

    i am about to list that GS550 I bought on a whim which will be fun. Not.
