Accelerate like your being chased, Corner like you mean it, Brake as if you life depends on it.
Ride Hard...or go home.

The other bidder has a negative feedback rating. Even the 1 positive he has is probably bogus.
The seller will cancel his bid.
He's not gonna take a chance on this guy.
The motor has silicone sealer coming from the head gasket area.
I would tear the motor down and fix it right. It's not a rebuilt motor. But I would be willing to go $150.
The motor alone is worth more than that.
Just wait till the last minute.
Bidding early to be high bidder only gives others time to chip away and drive the price up. Stay cool and snatch it at the end :thumb:

Lemme ask you this and all the other ebay bidders, why did you bid on a buy it now item? Just Buy it now and be done with it. And you NEVER bid in the beginning or middle of an auction you wait until the last minute and put in a proxy bid and try to snag it otherwise it will get bid up to an outrageous amount.

I bet that bike will go more than the buy it now price.

When bidding on something I really want, I ALWAYS wait until the last minute, until there are less than 5 minutes left to the auction, and then I hit it.  Usually have more than 1 browser window open, with different bid amounts, and i just keep hitting higher until I reach my limit; this allows me to slip in, and by the time the person I beat gets an e-mail, the auction has ended and I won it.

I did it last night with a GS gas tank.  Got it for 79.20 shipped.

the key switch for the ignition?.   i think i have another one laying around, but dont have a key for it, you can have a key cut for it by taking it into a dealership.
