This thing is going for at LEAST $1K less than it's worth. Given that and the "fresh fluids" title, what do you think is wrong with it? Mechanical issues or stolen?

I see ads like that all the time, I always assume stolen and pass over it

I've seen that exact add in the b'more classfields

"I have done a bunch of work to it. It has about 6500 miles."

Ask yourself why a 6500 mile 2013 bike would have needed "a bunch of work"

Doing a reverse google image search shows the pic all over the internet, so it's some random image that was grabbed off google. Scam.

Yeah, if it ever comes back on a reverse GIS, then it's not an original image. We had a dude trying to sell a gsxr here for ~2600 with the same sort of popular image, with multiple angles to make it look legit.

I can't believe this, you mean there's bad people out there just like my mom warned me?

Never even thought of doing that. That'll teach me to browse CL at 3AM! :doh: :D

As much as it sucks to hear it, if the deal isn't quite right, it isn't quite right.

How do you do a reverse Google Image search? It'll be helpful when I look for another bike in the future.

Just search for the URL of the image and click the link that says "search by image" in the results.
