Useless no spelling idiots. We are living in a world where it is acceptable to be stupid.
In the pictures he is just checking the sprocket bolts.

Listed and located in South Carolina, yet seller has a California area code. Not a "smoking gun" by any means, but a little strange still..

Most interesting, is the lack of ANY personal touches that would make it identifiable in photos. No swing arm stickers, they even removed the cross bar pad (except in the one photo). Would love to see this "title"..

Something smells funny...

Be careful, if it is too good to be true, you will probably get screwed. I would have the police run the VIN number to see if it is hot. If it is hot that can screw the clutch up too.

If you can confirm it's not stolen slap a fresh tire and new top end on that bitch and rip it. It's still a good deal at that price. The old owner already trained it to wheelie too so you don't have to teach it.

No kick starter on the bike in the trailer pic and kickstarter is on in the last pic. Two different bikes pictured?

The last picture is maybe when he first got that bike. Clutch cover looks clean and the rear tire isn't a slick just yet.

"Wheelies in erry gear"

Edit: I do believe the sprocket bolts are being checked for torque in the photos.

I like the fact all the clutches are in good working order.

EDIT: Clearly I'm inebriated. Not only are the clutches slipping, so am I! Spewin, I had a sweet quad to trade. Would've hired a Tinny and delivered it too.

Why repair a clutch when you can just go get a whole new bike?

Ask them whats up. Sometimes theyre for real. I bought my kx for $1000 and all it needed was a valve adjustment. Theres people out there who dont know shit about bikes or their value so when they break they think theyre worth nothing and give them away. Take advantage of these people.

It’s on Facebook market place for 4K. Deft seems shady, ask to meet at police station or somewhere public and make sure your packing!! If I wasn’t out of work from injury I would of tried to scoop it up.

Clutch and brake levers are jacked up!
