Motorcycle Forum / General / Sportbikes / February 2005Ebay bike, false description?
The lister here says the damage on this Tuono was from riding too close to a wall. "it has never been down or in any accident" What do you call riding "close" enough to a wall to cause this type of damage? Something you do on purpose? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=38627&item=453 0140463&rd=1 That must have been one heck of a feat for that rider to ride close enough to a wall to take off the blinker, scuff up the mini-fairing, and scuff up the clutch lever and bar-end in a fashion to make it look like the bars were turned 45* to the left during the "closeness" with the wall... Is there anything the Ebay admins can do about this ad? -marc > The lister here says the damage on this Tuono was from riding too close > to a wall.

The important point is that it makes no diff to the value of the bike if it scraped while vertical against a wall or scraped while horizontal along the road. Damage is damge. -paul > > It's been crashed, the seller is bullshitting > > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > -paul Not impossible at all, I guarantee it's been down the road. The scraped bar end and lever was done at full steering lock. Sure, it may have come up againsed a wall (highly unlikely) but it hit the road after that. looks like it went down to me... >The lister here says the damage on this Tuono was from riding too close >to a wall.
