Seems you should change the the listing so it comes up as a Harley Davidson not other makes. Doubt that many will find it as listed. Also, as others say your description is very lacking. Look at other listings to get an idea what to do. Get rid of most of the pictures at night and take some in sunlight and bigger. I never had any luck on eBay but some do. Maybe think about Cycle Trader. Good Luck

Dimly lit, overly small driveway shots are still better than "I'm too lazy to pull the old bike out of the back of my cluttered garage, so here it is sitting behind my new bike" shots..

Pictures where you could see the bike would be an excellent start, what you have there doesn't even warrant an email for more pics. Take a look at your ad would you consider spending 30 g's based on your pictures?
