Your prices are "high"... I spoke with you about your valve'd and sprung, stock forks. I wanted them separated from the rear... over the phone you raised the price.... not sold!

awhile back you promised to send me some pilot jets, when they didn't arrive, you blamed and made excuses... never arrived!

see what it's all worth to you sitting in your garage!


rant all you want... I got ur number-it's BULLSHIT!

Lets see.... I had a price for a package deal but you wanted things broken up but couldn't understand why the prices might change in that situation. Then you tried to offer a price that was possibly acceptable for a set of stock forks, not ones that have been re-valved and re-sprung, so you were told no deal. Guess what, it all sold for the price I was asking.....

I remember that, it was what 3 years ago...... Someone was looking for some pilots, I had an extra set which I sent out for free, I was later told they never arrived. So what was i supposed to do, refund your money. I will send you out a refund right now....

I also have your number my friend, and it Looser.....

Besides you are a classic example of a lowballer...... you don't have the $$ to buy something that is offered for sale yet you still reply and say you want to buy it and then turn around and say "Oh I only have XX dollars, is that ok?" Well if you can't afford the stuff why the hell do you reply in the first place?

And with your jacked up attitude I am glad now that the jets never showed up, I guess your too damn cheap to spend $10 to buy your own damn parts......

If I ever get some USD forks, I will hit you up for the triple Mike.

No worries my friend...... though having it around sure has come in handy servicing USD forks for people.

Mike, place them up for sale at $320 and maybe then you'll get offered half again and make what you were looking for in the first place!

My AC went out on my '00 Civic, w/ 283k on it. Posted on 2 CL's near me, w/ what was good & what was bad, I thought my email would blow up.

I sold my beloved Civic for $1900. what I asked.

Honda Baby.

Lastly, I will never sell my VTR - 1st Moto's rarely hold any kind of value, 2nd I got WAY too much invested to let some asshat low ball.

Ride it until it blows up>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

I have thought of that but I am using them too much lately. Like I said they come in real handy for working on USD forks. Best holding clamp ever for taking the end caps off on so I can have folks just bring me their forks, not the whole bike if the want.

what wheels are you selling

8541Hawk

Oh, I"m not selling the bike. Besides the fact that it's one of my Favorite bikes out of all the ones I have owned, I could never get the $$ back out of it. Hell the suspension alone is actually worth more than the rest of the bike at this point....... Besides I have a few more plans and things to do which should keep me busy with it for a little while still.

This was about just selling off extra parts.

Though this fine member "looserbaby" just highlights what I have been saying......

Things are just a bit different from my point of view.....
Yes I has a full suspension set up for sale. Now these were not just stock items, They were both re-sprung & re-valved by http://www.le-suspension.com/ a well known local guy who does a lot of AFM & AMA bikes. Just to have the forks done will set you back $600. Then to go through the shock is another $400 (I say it would be about the same as having some who really know what they are doing putting a full race-tech kit except he uses his own parts instead of theirs) and also toss in a forke brace to complete the set up.

So when it comes time to sell it what is a fair price? The stuff is all in good shape as I do keep up on my suspension maintenance. The rear shock had just been service (which I did every 2-3 years @$140) and I was very up front about the fact that, if i was going to run them, I would change the bushings and seals. I also did this every 2-3 years on top of changing the fluid every years. There were no leaks or any sign of bushing slop, it just IMHO time to change them.

I set a price of $450 for the whole set up, a pretty fair price IMHO but I guess some people think that is just way too much...... So I get a PM from my good buddy, looser. It say he want to buy the suspension. Not that he want only part of it or anything about the price.

So I call him and then he says he only wants to buy the forks. I told him I would think about separating the items and figure out the prices.

Now I have to figure out what to ask. As now I have to go through the whole selling process and have to ship 2 separate items I came up with $300 for the forks and the brace. Then list the shock for $175 (and remember i just up $140 into it) Once again, I though this was more than fair and technically I did raise my prices but not on the part Mr. Wonderful was looking at, but then I'm just BullShit.

So I call him and tell him this and he gets quite upset. Then asks how much without the fork brace. So now that I have to try and sell another bit separate, I told him $250 for the forks. You can't even touch the parts to try and valve them yourself at that price.

Then I get, well I only have $200, will you sell them for that. I told him no, as IMHO they were worth a bit more than than. So once again, not sold, is correct. It's just that it was me who refused to be low balled that hard for them. So I guess because I didn't want to bend over for him, I'm just BullShit.

I had forgotten all about the pilot jet thing. Yeah I remember the whole thing. You needed some pilot jets and I just happened to have a spare set. So I offered to send them to you. I didn't ask for any $ and just taped them to a piece of cardboard and threw it in the mail.

A week or so later you got in contact with me and said you didn't get them. My attitude now , they same as then, is that you know that sucks they didn't get there but what do you want me to do about it?

I guess that's blaming and making excuses...... Then again, because I didn't run out and buy another set of jets and mail them to you, I'm either just making it all up or once again just BullShit.


So while, looser, you might think I'm a price changing, excuses making just plain BULLSHIT. I see you as an ungrateful, cheap ***, lowballer who trying to talk a bunch of **** because he didn't get his free stuff and I said no to an offer I felt was way too low.

About all I can say now is , just remember it's Mr. BULLSHIT to you my friend.
