curious as to why this hasn't sold yet

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Moto-Guzzi-Lemans-1-/272362248775?forcerrptr=true&hash=item3f6a0e1a47:g:TesAAOSwFe5XyYua&item=272362248775

a few obvious non original aspects but still $8500 with a make an offer option?  what am i missing?  or is it just that prices have fallen lately

Because it's a "pig in a poke " (old saying 😊)
It may have engine problems, new rings before 35k?

It may have electrical problems,, turn signals off but reassures us other lights are working.

Unknown mileage. Broken speedo.

Unoriginal paint scheme. Rusty forks.

Of course, a good original with a history will bring 2X's the money.
