Why do I keep looking at craigslist for bikes when I am not even on the market?

[ccm900]

Hi, my name's Marcel

And I'm addicted to Craigslist...i check it every day. I have it as a app on my Yahoo toolbar. 1 click and I'm in my local motorcycle section. I even go to searchtempest to look for things in my entire state with the ease of going to 1 site. I cant afford a single thing on there. Why do I look?  I know I have a problem, my wife tells me all the time. Is there hope for me?

It pays off too looking here and there.  One day I decided to search for baxley.  Those stands are never on there but what the hell I was bored.  Scored a used once baxley sport chock for $125 local

I keep looking for a clean stock CB750, that hasn't been "chopped". GP motorcycles has a pre - 1980 ride every year and I need something to take that ride on. Of course there is always the money issue

it's the old "have to buy a new tool" problem in another form...

I too am addicted to Craigslist.  Which is extra dumb, because there will be no cash for more motorcycles until I: fix the one I have, pay off the other one, pay off my credit card, pay for a wedding, and probably a move across the country.  So, next bike in five years?

It has blinkers and mirrors so should be able to be tagged

I can't view the page without registering... 

If it has blinkers and mirrors, it can be.  They were originally street bikes, but most are converted to track use, like mine...

Is there any other way to view the thread without creating an account?

Thanks Mike, I'll just have to make an account.. 

Seems a little steep, though...

I was thinking it was pricey too but never looked for them before so no idea of what they typically go for.
It's a white bike with a lucky strike design.

Omg - That can't be real.  I saw the post.  If it is legit, it is probably sold in 10 minutes.
My guess is that It probably is a scam.
