Serious Inquiries Only

Hey all-

While skimming through Ebay and Craigslist today, I'd been wondering why so many entries say "serious inquiries only", because I'd been assuming that most people posted for sale only because they wanted to sell rather than because they want to commune with their fellow bikers.

But then I saw this listing (without the "serious inquiries only" constraint):

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/mcy/1181577587.html

I nearly wept.  The text is magnificent and the bike is pretty nice too.  I'm having difficulty preventing myself from emailing the seller just to find out more about his/her inspiration.

OK, that's a really cool ad.  [cheeky]

I can't resist such a good line. OMG

I dare anyone who lives near this bike to go to the house for a look.  Ask the seller to let you hear the bike, and then take your pants off and throw them into the nearest tree.  Why?  Because the only thing funnier then reading that would be to see it happen.  Video for proof!

My buddy had a sweet 95 SS/SP and it also was biposto. He had a carbon mono tail and seat from a superlight that he used most of the time unless the wife was going to be passenger.
