I’ve been holding my tongue about your posting every fricking bike in the North East . Trust me your screwing every good local deal up for the people who devote hours of time searching our area . WE KNOW WHERE THESES BIKES ARE !!!!!! Please stop it . Your post have cost me $$ and bikes in the past and I kept my mouth shut . You don’t see others doing this here they post a bike once in a while that they aren’t interested in or has been sitting for sale a while . Not every fresh find in our area !!!!! If you know where these are go buy them !!! But please stop posting Every North East Bike find thats been listed a hour on here !!! I’ve auctially made this reply when I was mad in the past but decided against posting it until now. But it is time to respectfully let you know it’s Not helpful or fair to the people local to these bikes !!!!

There are areas in this wonderful country of ours where incredible bargains languish for weeks on Facebook and Craigslist. The Northeast is not one of those areas. I’m a big fan of keeping it local and on the down-low. Saying so makes me feel like a jerk local surfer trying to keep the howlies off my waves, but there it is.

I say this with all due respect Just somthing to think about if he starts posting all the bikes in your area and was costing you time wasted effort and $$ then you would understand.

One more suggestion that I have made in the past. This section should be for Cabe members to see only .

tanksalot- Your assertion that I am costing you money by posting bikes in the Craigslist,Eay section is absurd. If you have a problem with me posting bikes there then take it up with Scott. I'm not breaking any rules as far as I know.

Why not address me in a private conversation instead of posting it on the forum ? Were you hoping that more guys would pile on and make you feel better ? Nothing in this life is for certain except death. Whether or not you are able to purchase a bike on CL is not solely up to me. Don't make me the bad guy for posting some interesting bikes on a forum devoted to hobbyists. Not everyone is in it for the money.

What is the high bid , this bike that appears to be 92 or 93, should be about 1,000 to1,500 , ,the broken stem is an easy fix
