I would suggest a close exam of the title first since it is not in the seller's name, but yes, a very cool bike.

The ad is not very confidence inspiring IMHO.  Its got several niggling issues and the owner seems 'too transparent' while not very knowledgeable at the same time.  I dont think it will sell for $10k US but all we can do is watch. The title thing is a big turn-off for a lot of people, esp if you are planning on importing it to the US-- and december is not a great time to sell a bike in canada.

I dont understand why police bikes are more sought after than the civvy models.

for me it's the big polished dash. On the Civi the dual gauges don't score any aesthetic points with me.

The bike is in my province but I don’t know anything about it. In Canada there are no titles for vehicles, only provincial registration
A bike can be exported from Canada into the USA provided the motorcycle is currently registered in the province it will be exported from, the seller provides a bill of sale, a photocopy of the sellers drivers licence and passport. A purchaser will need to retain a customs broker to file the appropriate paperwork with US Border services, about $100 - $150. Door to door shipping from Canada to the USA will range from $1400 - $2000 depending on distance. Alternatively the seller takes the bike to Sweetgrass Montana and the buyer picks the bike up from there. Once in the USA the purchaser will need to apply for a title. There are no import restrictions on a Motorcycle over 15 years of age into the USA.

It does appear to be one of Mark’s restorations.  He doesn’t pin stripe the top of the tank.
