What's wrong? The fact that it would appear that he put his home address out on craigslist or he's trying to sell his bike for twice what its worth? I find craigslist as entertaining as I find it to be useful.

Maybe he's hoping someone will steal it so he can get the insurance money

He just needs to add that he doesn't use the alarm, leaves the key in it and parks it in an unlocked garage to complete the picture.

This is his thinking: "I'll teach her to tell me I have to sell my bike, I'll just list it for twice what it's worth so no one will even call on it!!!"

gauranteed!

He probably paid 12 or 13k for it and is trying to pay it off.

Not a bad looking bike, but not worth 10K

If he still owes $10,000 on an 04 something is wrong.I could have bought a new 06 for 11K full pop I might add when I bought my 883L.

He obviously doesn't want to sell it that bad... I paid less than that for my Ultra...
