RCH JGR RMZ.. Craigslist Bike of the Day

Edited Date/Time 3/26/2015 4:18am
You can't make this stuff up folks... or can you?? http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/4919313725.html

Read the entire ad.. Nothing about it seems tongue-in-cheek, dude seems pretty serious about the authenticity of the bike. Sure, JGR is located here in North Carolina... but so many questions arise..

Special frame for factory riders only?? Unsure

At what point was RCH outsourcing motor and suspension work to JGR??

The not-for-public Dunlop tires are certainly interesting..

Either this guy is full of shit and enjoys writing satire in his spare time; or he's got one hell of a bike and just so happens to be the worst salesman, ever..

I've seen numerous bikes on the Charlotte (and surrounding areas) CL making all sorts of JGR/factory claims.

Saw this one a while back.

You might want to go by and see it and find out for yourself what's going on and report back - it would be interesting to know if any of it is legit or if he's just got a bunch of aftermarket bolt-ons and trying to use BS hype to overprice it.
The internals are obviously the parts the buyer can't easily see and verify.

Judging by the forks, that bike may have been an ex-BTO bike from their last year on Suzukis. Either way, this guy has no clue what he's talking about.Laughing

Tell him you are interested in buying, but only if it has powerbands in every gear.

Yea, I've seen many "JGR team bikes" on CL before.. This one takes the cake though. If Asheboro wasn't such a haul, I'd try to look into it more

Is the smoking gun here not the "special frame only for factory suzuki racers" ???

The only thing unique about RCH and Yosh's choice of frame is that they ran the 2012 frame for 2013 and 2014.

Yeah that, and as ML512 pointed out, he doesn't have a clue in general or he'd do a better job of making it sound convincing to a knowledgeable buyer. But that's not the market of scammers - it's the ignorant.

Seems a lot of people like to take advantage of lesser informed buyers by playing to their vanity (Bo! This here's is the GOAT's old bike! It's even got full race knobbies!)

I will say I've seen the ignorant trying sell something they truly think is special because that's how it was sold to them.

Heck, I even had a guy ask me if I could help him with his 2004 RM125... and then proceeded to unload a 93 RM125.

When I asked him where his 04 was he thought I was being funny. He was convinced he had an 04 based on the word of the seller, so much so that he tried to argue with me. I told him not to take my word but take it by the local Suzuki dealer and ask them to ID it by the VIN and to Google images of a 1993 RM125.
When he realized he'd been scammed he couldn't utter anything other than profanities the whole time he was loading it up.

Good to see Poland making inroads into the gearbox hop-up business.

Bikes stolen is what I was thinking too.

Maybe he just changed the tires because the others were bald from wheelie kings.

Or maybe it's just a general advice to polish the transmission. Seems like a nice and honest guy!
