It's a scam. You can tell because there's no link on the CL ad to respond. The only contact is thru the email addy they photoshopped into the stolen picture.

major scam

this is a scam. They never put a phone number and when you get a hold of them via email, they are never in the city that they advertised it in. Just go ahead a flag it so we can get it out of there. LOL they always had to leave town to help with sick family member or just got divorced but can ship it you, either way if it were real and they wanted that little for something the was worth a lot more .... well no need to advertise it and wait for response when you can ask the neighbor or the local harley dealer to buy it. And last of all if a minute has passed sense it was posted then it's gone by now LOL

Notice there is no email link for the ad. The email is embedded into the photo so the Craigslist spam filters can't pick it out and block it.

What's sad is there are people that actually fall for scams like that.

I'm in OC right now. I don't think there's anyone here hard up or stupid enough to sell that bike for $2800. Scam.
