Now this is a scammer.

https://huntsville.craigslist.org/mcy/d/decatur-used-1998-honda-valkyrie-tour/6948135941.html


We shall see, I sent him a will buy it for $1,200 email.

I noticed it was flagged for removal later the next day. But miraculously
it is still on Craigslist in a different location. The traveling $1200 Valkyrie.

https://eastky.craigslist.org/mcy/d/west-liberty-honda-valkyrie/6955190675.html

That alone should tell you that it's a scam. Posted 13 days ago? Hell No. If it was legit, it would have been sold to the first person who contacted the seller. Flag It!

I see the same bike's listed in several different cities all the time and know it's a scam immediately by the unbelievable price. I flag everyone I see.
But it's a losing battle. I guess some may fall for it but I can't see how.
The days of a elderly widow selling a 1963 split window Corvette for $2500
are long gone.

Another CL scam I get every few months, is the buyer asking for something along the lines of a Title Search (not the right words, deleted the email), something that needs paying for. The scam is them getting you to buy something you have no need for. Maybe even scam your CC information.

It's something like a FireFox (?), damage title report. On a 24' yr old car for $2K? Meaningless.

No mileage listed, but plenty of extra stuff.  Colorado Springs, CO

https://denver.craigslist.org/mcy/d/colorado-springs-must-sell-1997/6963754661.html

Says 55,000 miles in the boxes on the right side of the listing. So, just a baby by Valk standards  :)

Apparently you've not purchased one recently.  I don't live in BF, Kansas any more than you live in BF, Arizona.  The  Interstates I have bought have been from south of Houston, San Antonio, and just out of Seattle.

Looks like a nice Tourer. Wonder how much the Voyager set-up could be sold for.

Sheesh!  The point is that you insulted me by implying that I was limited to "Bumfuck, Kansas" ( a place normally attributed to Egypt) while speaking from ignorance.  Perhaps you were not bright enough to have understood the exchange.

No, it's not a fantastic price in Phoenix either.  ;)  People from Phoenix can travel about the U.S. to ride a good Valk home.

Good Lord! I was joking about BF KS, THUS the wink  ;) Lighten up a bit. We just have to agree to disagree. Now, do you want the last word, or does it end here?  :roll:

I can't believe no one has bought this one yet. I'll bet it can be had for $500 it's worth 5 times that in parts.
