Out of curiosity, after viewing several photos and email exchange, I arranged to view the bike. After confirmatory text, took ferry over to Tacoma. No surprise, no “Peter Brown” and no Henderson to be found at the address. No response to text or call after that. Reinforces rule 17, “if it sounds too good to be true, it is”. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Good detective work. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Since the seller’s area code is 360 (Washington state), I sent him an email to see if the bike was close by for me to view. He replied that it was in Tacoma (short ferry ride away from me). After I responded that I wanted to come look at bike....no reply. I see that his number is also associated with a Laverda in Germany and expensive Avionics equipment in Portland. Quite a racket. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- OUhhh!! Premature transmission failure!! That sounds painful! ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- If the scammers had any brain cells, they'd at least price it near what it's worth. Peter Brown, get lost, you can't fool us. I wish you premature transmission failure! :) ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- I was going to say the same thing but figured I'd keep my comments to myself. A basket case engine out of that bike is worth $17,000!!! What's with all the scammers!!!!! ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- $17,000 ?? Sounds like another scam. If it was real, it would be worth a hell of lot more than that. I'll take two at that price lol. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- This is a rare older original restoration.
