Yup I got the same response. No way I'll get this one - local interest will win out I'm sure. GOD DAMMIT. I'll never snag an ET3 here in the northeast for under 2K.
So am I going to see you down there

In general it's hard to find these anywhere.

Not sure - I just sold off a bunch of bikes in my thinning the heard sale. Since then I bought Jimmy B's et3 and an ss180. But - I have to say the wife was liking the white et3 for herself!

$14,800. Are you kidding me? It doesn't even have the legshield trim. Wow. Mint SS90s don't even go for that much.

Did you check shipping?? $3,500-4,000 lower 48- depending on location, of course. Probably chartering a Gulfstream 5 for the journey...

I'm an old man, been here before, so no rub on the back necessary. The following is a cut and paste of messages we exchanged about the sale of your Rally parts.

T-Bone:
Aug 1
I have both an og seat and a brand new one the one you saw on the rally... With no springs and still the 135 price tag... Engine I will do for 400 and the one cowl is in really good shape the other Isn't the greatest so all together I will cut a deal for 700 plus shipping..

Aug 2
hey there... so after doing my research on the engine COMPLETE I am asking 800..  The seat I will do 90 obo... and 300 for cowls...

--
Dominic

Me:
Aug 3
Okay, I don't blame you.  I'll hold off and try to find something more local.  If it doesn't sell, let me know.

I remained nice in my Aug 3 reply, although I wanted to outline standards of forthright business dealings. Only the blazing hypocrisy demonstated in this thread brought this reply. He did to you what you did to me. Just facts, no hard feelings. I have bought parts from a number of members of this group, and you are the only one to back out of an agreed upon price.

Take care of your new ride. Looks nice.

I love how the auction lists "Local pickup only" but the seller wants about 5 times what shipping would actually cost. I ship VERY large items internationally on a regular basis so I have some knowledge in this field.

Calling this guy a crackhead is to insult crackheads everywhere.

So that $14k doesn't actually include the shipping so basicly he actually wants $19k for it when all is said and done. Some how I just don't see that happening.

At least it doesn't look like it's a bodge.

Yeah, crackhead. (no offense to any crackheads we may have on the forum)

Could this be a T5?
http://tucson.craigslist.org/mcy/1956662443.html

1981 Vespa that was imported from Italy. Runs with a clean title

. I think it is 150cc, enough for a motorcycle endorsement.


Kickstart with a battery option?

Email for info to discuss more specifics, not really an expert.

It can also be viewed at Espresso Art Cafe at 942 E University Blvd where it is on display.

Nope, the T5 is a 125cc largeframe like your P2. That's a smallframe - looks like a PK though I don't know much about them. A PK would, at most, be a 125cc as well, BTW

Prima for $1600?
http://orlando.craigslist.org/mcy/1954931227.html

This 1972 Primavera is in perfect running order. Body is decent, but does have "character"!

I will be in Orlando with this scooter on Thursday afternoon / evening.

Call or e-mail with questions or to set up an appointment. (630) 561-5873

No trades of any kind. Cash only.

Thank you.
