Gorgeous bike. Never mind Daimo's old man's MV F4, this is the bike I aspire to owning!

Some of the Q&A are great:

Q: I'm not sure if this post is meant to be a joke or what??? It certianly does appear you are attempting to get people to bid on an R6 that isn't wrecked based upon your initial picture of the R6. I think I'm going to call BS on this auction and contact eBay. I believe your being fraudulent in your auction by hoping people will bid on an R6 without scrolling down to the wrecked item. Good luck

A: Who would bid on a bike without looking at all of the pictures first? Get real. It's very obvious that we are trying to sell a wrecked bike! Go crawl back in your hole now.

Q: I diddnt know Gay people make bikes?

A: I didn't know straight people stuttered when they typed. Try using both hands.

Q: I would like to buy this bike and ride it home. Since it has no battery, will you help me push-start it?

A: Absolutely Jon, in fact we might even drag-start it behind the fork lift, no extra charge. Bring a nice sack lunch.

There's an absolute crapload of salvagable parts on that, the AK20 internatls are probably fine and they cost a thousand dollars I'd have it.

you think?
the front right fork looks seriously bent to me. The cartridge would be jocked, no?

There is probably a few nice bits on that bike alright, the shock, back wheel, swingarm maybe, the engine would be grand I suppose, broken motor mount though, but jesus, they did a some job on it.

Amazing to think one off did all that.


edit.... just noticed, 3105 miles. Ouch.
