The longer you hang around the more you will discover that real old motorcycle people aren't the best at the internet. In fact most are quite terrible. I think that most that are marginal at the internet are basically on this site and well...you see how well things work around here. .
Real?

Tex,
On the "value" thread I gave examples of two recent purchases that went south because the seller back-slid on telephonic deals.
When it comes to $$$, I trust people to act in their self interest.
That's the world I live in.
But it's good to be surprised.

The last Norton I looked at was an Electra, in a strange light brown color, down in Rhode Island, USA. It virtually new, sold by a former dealer, off of his old stock. Sadly, it was missing misc. parts. The former dealer had been slowing stripping it and selling pieces off in the UK.

I don't see what there is to be suspicious about. Unless you think its for sale for a dollar - because it isn't. 1$ can mean $1,000 or just that no price is stated.
Other than that there is nothing weird or non weird about it. Bike can be great or shit based on the ad. The fact that they might want to film you seems legit - they would want to disclose it as thry probably prefer getting the footage if possible.
I just don't see how the claim would in any sense benefit any scam. At least I wouldn't pay extra just because I thought that I could end up on TV.

The Great Gig in the Sky Thread
GeneralWith so many of the greatest musicians recently passing, I thought I'd start a common thread and get all the good memories in one place. RIP Maurice White, founder of Earth, Wind and Fire. This sound really makes me pine for the good old days of realistic expectations and minimal responsibility.- 112

The "Whatcha Doin Today" Thread
GeneralI assume that many members here are doing lots of small, but interesting things throughout the days. While those things might not warrant a 1000 page thread I thought it would be fun to have a thread that people could post the small things. Be it a job done on a bike, or car, or just something...- 2K
