I saw this non running bike on craigslist. Would there be more than 1500 in parts on it? Would it be a shame to part it out?http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/mcy/1101615199.h tml | ||

Shame to part it out. Might be a perfectly good bike with a little work. Probably low miles too. | ||
| Ratbuell |
Whether it's perfect or not, it's DEFINITELY worth $1500. If you get it home and it's not what you want, post it here on badweb...someone will give it a good home. | ||
| Ourdee |
I don't have the 1500 sitting around. Hoping someone here would get it. | ||

I emailed the guy. I'll see what happens | ||

Ourdee, are you close enough to look at the bikes (maybe pictures)? Do you have the space to hold them for a couple of months? I can send you 1500. If the bike is mostly there and it is a 96 S2-T I would buy it but I cannot just pickup and leave however I will be in that area for homecoming. | ||

Loren, I must have been typing when you posted. Sorry, you go ahead. The sad thing is it will probably end up as a chopper project if you do not get it. | ||
| Gowindward |
Frank, I'll see if the guy responds. I emailed the craig's list email and the AOL address he list asking for photos and contact info. | ||
| Gowindward |
Okay, This was the response. "NO PHOTOS"...That was it. Guy is not a communications major for sure. Replied back asking for a contact number and where can the bike be seen. | ||

They sound stolen to me. Can't find the keys for one, can't start either of them, but they both run? He can't actually remember what's wrong with the Buell? WTF? I wouldn't be surprised if he had some "trouble" locating those titles. ~SM | ||
| Indybuell |
definitely sound stolen. Emailed requesting VINS, and was told I would have to come see them. | ||
| Gowindward |
Yes, most things to good to be true are well... just not true. But who knows. | ||
| F_skinner |
Ourdee, thanks for the PM. If they are stolen then he will not give up the VIN. He seems to be an idiot to me. | ||
| Ourdee |
Thats what I am leaning toward. It did look too good. | ||

Craigslist is full of losers. | ||

i also just emailed him and asked him pretty much the same questions. We will see what happends.. I live a little more then an hour or so away and will buy it if it seems legit. | ||
| Xb984r |
He says he has both titles in hand, I guess some of you need to settle down. | ||

Ian, good for you, I would love to do another S2 project bike and especially a S2T. | ||
| Iamike |
Hey, I sold my S3 on Craigslist in 2 hours. | ||

E-mail the thread to the Hammond, IN PD. | ||

If anyone gets a number, I can stop by and check it out! I'm heading to Chicago today for Drill so I sorta kinda not really pass through there (it's south of my route), but more than happy to stop for anyone, and I'll take a camera. | ||
| Brinnutz |
I just read the post, seems I'll stop by and check it out (I don't have $1500 sitting around though). I am going to contact a buddy and see if he knows any LEO's out there and have them come with me to run the VIN's while I wait. =) Even thought I'm not buying. LOL | ||
| Brinnutz |
I've got a repsonse and an address to go check out the bike today. I won't be buying it, but I will have the VIN ran by a buddy who is a LEO...and rides a Buell. I'll get pics as well and either post them while I'm driving or once I get to base. | ||
| Gowindward |
Wilson, What kind of commission you want to act as my "agent" on this deal? | ||
| Brinnutz |
Got any shiny cool parts? LOLOLOLOL if not, a case of beer would do. =) btw, the LEO doing the check for me is also a BadWeb member. =) Loren, PM with your cell and I'll call you while I'm on the road there. | ||
| Gowindward |
No shiny parts, but I have a real nice basket I could give you to hold shiny parts. LOL I'll PM you my cell. Thanks | ||
| Brinnutz |
Coulda been bit, coulda not....We'll never know the fate..It was gone 30 min before I got there. | ||
| Ferris_von_bueller |
what a coincidence | ||
| Brinnutz |
I'm sure it was there. The Yamaha was there! Lookeed in ok shape, just hadn't been ridden in awhile. The guy had a ton of quads and shit...So, I don't think it was hot.... |
