That photo is funny.

I see we are in the 'weird' part of Boxerworks again........
Should I have said unequivocally, not equivocally?
I think any sort of quivering.

What was Valdez doing while he was away? One thing you can be sure of. He wasn't getting his eyes fixed!

sorry - I have looked at a handful (ha ha) of pictures of naked women in my life, and that one is just not jumping out at me.

"Equivocally" is funnier.

I knew it wasn't Diane. She has bigger balloons, and they are far less perky.

An eBay update: "43 people are viewing this item per hour" with 78 watchers!

Still, there have been no bidders! What's up with that???

$8000 is a high start price

The paint doesn't look oem to some..too "thick" with the dark accents. The oem helmet sticker for the tank that appeared at this time is also missing.
It does look too unmarked especially around the buckle zone adjacent to the seat. Also, looking at the fuel cap and the handlebar controls, there seems to be what looks like age markings/corrosion/nqr appearance which may be inconsistent with claims.

This is a 30+ year bike and the colour scheme is one that fades. It's in very sunny and hot Queensland and would by most probabilities have at least some fading.

Better detailed closeup shots would help a prospective buyer.
