Broken tailbone? Get a comfort seat.

Tailbones heal, the guy should have come up w. a better reason than that for the sale.

I call BS . I think it went for a 284 mile joy ride.

Besides , you can ride year round in Fla. so all he has to do is wait 'til it would heal ( if it really happened  [thumbsdown] )

I think  the Guy thinks he can turn a fast profit due to the popularity of the Diavel and suspected scarscity ....but I think there are black ones in relative availability.

eh, my aunt broke her tailbone riding horses, still affects her alot 40 years later

me thinks his wife is boss...

+1... [laugh]

 She probably broke his tailbone when he showed up on it.

Getting rid of his bike due to a broken tail bone, I call BS. I have a broken tailbone, 2 smashed disks in my lumbar and a plate with 2 Cadaver bones in my neck and I still ride WITH the DP Low seat on my Monster.

You've got dead people in ya?

Second that.  I've broken my tail bone in the past, and although it took a long time to heal, it healed.  I dont know what he paid for it but I'm assuming he's going to take a beating on it. 

Jerry,

 I know how painful Tailbones can be.

Mine bothers me every time I ride and I've never broken it.

Dolph     :)

clearly you all are just tougher and more manly than the seller.

my Sunday rides involve pushing my bike uphill 90 miles both ways.

in the snow.

Many years ago, my "coccyx" was broken twice (within about 4 years). I've got over 35 years (and 300k miles) in the saddle since then. [wine]

Was(/is) not a big deal, for me at least... It hurt like he!! for several days when I did it though (both times)! :o

Back in the mid 70s my girlfriend and I were lounging in the hammock on my front porch and one of the hooks it was attached to broke. I hit the concrete porch (with gf on top of me) on my tail bone and it broke. It was unbelievably painful for a very long time. And no, neither me or the gf were overweight! >:( It had no effect in later years but it did hurt for a really long time. I think I now know where they came up with the term "pain in the ass". [laugh]

Among other things in the same general geographical area.....

I landed on my tailbone once when I was around 15 I think..  going down a hill on blades, patch of wet pavement at the bottom where you had to make a sharp turn or get hit by  trucks..  didn't break but hurt for 2 months..

thats only 3 hours away from here, Damn i wish i had the money, would be sweet to commute on.

hmmm...

maybe it's the one from this pic... would actually explain the broken tailbone too

My local dealer had one on the showroom floor two weeks ago when I popped in to talk about the Monster 1100 EVO...and it was black.

I'm guessing he's selling because he didn't ask for permission from the boss first and she freaked when he showed up at home with it.   ;D

That bike was one of the test bikes, before production.

Bike on Ebay didn't make reserve at $16,100.
