  1. I completely agree.

    We're a community. I haven't met more than 10 or 12 ORDN members, but (believe it or not) my reputation on this site means something to me, and I generally respect (if not like) most of the regulars here.

    Ripping people off is no way to make myself look good, and you damn well better believe I am going to look out for you guys and call a rip-off a rip-off when I see it.

    Personally, I find it insulting to our intelligence when people post bikes "for their friend" :rolleyes: for twice what they're worth.

    There's also part of me that just thinks it's wrong to cheat people. Profit? Sure; but a fair deal is a fair deal, and a bad deal is a bad deal.

    I was a know-nothing 22 yr old shopping for a bike not that long ago, and I'm lucky as hell I didn't get taken. If I can help keep someone else from being ripped off, you bet I'm going to do so.

    And no, just because the dealership ripped you off and you own $5000 on your GS500 doesn't mean that it's less of a dick move to try and sell it to some other newb for $5k. Getting ripped off isn't a valid excuse to rip off someone else.

    people expect that shit on Craigslist because it's a truly public forum. You may not need any kind of "credentials" to post here, but this is supposed to be an online community of people who enjoy riding. Implicitly or explicitly, there ARE things you just don't do here that you'd be fine doing on Craigslist.

    /rant.

    Well said.

  2. If you want to rip someone off use craigslist. If you want to honestly sell something for a reasonable price list it here

    AMEN!

    I don't want fellow riders getting ripped off like i was on my first motorcycle purchase. This is a forum- if you want to sell your bike where people can't make comments use EBAY.
