Not a very collectible model, but Donn spotted this one coming out of a collection in Portland. We’ve covered it previously and currently it’s under $3k, reserve met.

PLEASE – review the video as I’ve included a lot of info in it that’s not in the text here.
I personally went up and saw this bike with a friend of mine. We were actually looking at his turbos. Solid guy, cool collection and definitely legit, you won’t be disappointed with this seller. Such an Iconic color scheme for the era…miss those days!
AAAAAAgHHHH! Eyes bleeding! Make it stop!…
This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken.
What’s up with that? So, does that mean he sold it outside of ebay even though the reserve had been met? If so, that sure is unfair to the high bidder. Usually you just see the standard item is no longer available. Is it possible the item really is broken?
Happens all the time Joe.

Hmm. Perhaps a case of: “You drop it, you bought it.” (?) I’ve seen stories of guys who let a potential buyer test ride before buying and the person just disappears down the street – bike never seen again ! …would possibly explain the ‘lost/broken’ comment.
He “lost” it to the guy who bought it outside of eBay, very common
I bought a bike on Ebay last week. He cancelled the purchase because he said he dropped it the day the auction closed. Very suspect considering the price was too cheap. I bid more but no one counter bid so it stayed low. If he would of just been honest and said he forgot to put a reserve and needed at least XXXXX then I may of stepped up but apparently honesty and integrity are not a trait everyone shares. Oh well….next! PS. I say another V&H at Mecum this past Jan…they come up from time to time..
I think he is just real clumsy and is always dropping his bikes. My point is just put “no longer available” not “lost or broken”. I always put for sale locally and auction may end at anytime in my listings. If it sells locally or through other means, then just put no longer available. But, as Motoman says honesty and integrity are not a trait everyone shares.
I thought we were talking about a motorcycle? But I guess a chat room works as well… Next 2 stroke (or supermono) please…
