Price is low.  Wording seems like English as a second language.  Not much info provided.  I'd be leery.  Move slowly.

This has to be a scam, a typo or a joke...............if was a typo and is really $20,000 I would think there would be more information as well so I think its not legit.

Yep just send a small deposit to hold the bike.  The broken English is your first clue as to who you are dealing with.

I have responded to a few on craigslist and are always a scam too good to be true, it normally is.

They want money to be sent somewhere or are overseas in the military or something like that. 

They will find a sucker eventually right?

In our local area there was a immigrant not knowing our customs and a person posing as an immigration office told him to go buy 15K in lottery tickets and he was stupid enough to go do it OUT 15K.  My question is how does someone guessing somewhat poor like that have 15K to blow on lottery tickets?

Beat all you guys to the good deal!  Too bad.  You snooze you lose!
