I am very pleased thanks for all your input . Love the sky in the headlight image with these bikes
Maybe a silver linning to your bad experience?
If it’s any consolation I think the kind of scum who stole your scooter are probably unlikely to be interested in a harley
Is it an eBay ad or have you seen the bike in the flesh. What's it's mileage?, it seems cheap.
