    If the running in sticker is still on, why isn't it there in the photo?
    I remember peeling mine off, and it was quite a big thing.

    And the colour. I'm sure the log book probably says "blue", not "a
    really special blue with three stripes down the tank" or am I missing
    something..?

  4. It is, on the tacho. A sort of red overlay. You can just see it.

  7. Well, it's an auction, so it's not overpriced. People obviously reckon
    it's worth that much. If it's as good as he says, I won't disagree.

    Yeah. Much as I love LC's I can't see me wanting to pay that much for
    one, unless it was still on it's original packing crate and never
    turned a crank!

    That's what jumped out at me. If someone tells such a blatant lie about
    something so easy to verify, I'm fucked if I'd believe anything else he
    says.

    I also dislike the idea of keeping a bike in a vac-bag .. and then
    hearing it 'breaks his heart to sell it' .. yeah, right.
