Jim, in the sellers defense, he has one e-bay feedback in the last 12 months - not your frequent lister type.

Sometimes, I love to see poorly placed ads because they can often be had for a song. I have purchased things specifically to place a better ad and make enough to cover the shipping and trouble. This one is tempting. One could hit the buy it now, ride it for a few months and place a deserving ad and net $500 to $1000 - but is it worth the bad Karma especially now knowing it is the original owner?

Ok, call me a paranoid disgusting old fool but when I see a cycle of this caliber with the way that it is advertised I just can not help but feel that the rightful owner may be out there somewhere looking for their stolen relic. Check out item #160431259205 and see what you all think. I sent the seller a "come on get with it" email that I am sure I will get a nice reply for (deserving). I am probably all wrong and if I am a sincerely apologize. Seeya
