I'm not familiar with this auction site. Anyone have any experience to pass on?

Wish I'd had one of these as a kid instead of a Harley 165.

ROFL Huckleberry!

I notice you put that on all of these postings...do you really think that anyone who buys this from the board is expecting you to provide a warranty or that you are selling these as a front man for the seller?  Just out of curiosity, what would you charge for a 4 year / 50K mileage warranty?

Why aim so low? How about like my customers do, with a seventeen year support commitment and spares standing by for air shipment?

I guess the EOL issue has already been taken care of though ...  :evil:
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

I see the current high bidder is Tim Parker.  Tim is the former editor of Motorbooks, a noted Laverda enthusiast and now works for Bonhams Motorcycle Auctions.  If he wants it, there is some value there.
