Who wanted a red D12?

I just saw this in my daily craigslist scan:

http://austin.craigslist.org/mcy/1421140537.html

I know nothing about bike or seller, but I remember that at least 1 person here was looking for a red Daytona 1200 so I thought I'd throw the link up.

Cheers,
-Kit

Not me-I already got one! I saw that ad posted too. There was another one posted on e-bay a few months back. I guess now we can count the whereabouts of at least four of them!

Was me, I was looking. Contacted this a couple of weeks ago. Holding out for a hangar queen and saw a couple last month but the price was not right.

Thanks for the point out though. Still looking.

Possibly. Either that or a poor attention span. Two teenagers and a nj are good patience training, tho.

But I gotta hold out for a good one to make it worth getting it inserted in me by my spouse who's less that thrilled by my existing garage assortment. But it did take her 3 months to notice the last stray that followed me home.

I might roll over for a no-mi stock D12SE, never know. Couple of the reds I saw were just ridiculously priced and not all that clean - and they'll likely deflate over time. They are not really that rare but getting 15 years old even the low mi ones can be very rough and missing parts from years of "enhancement".
