    Most of my work is on the computer so I can do pretty much whatever i want. When I was looking at buying a Hagon rear shock form the UK my boss even okayed making the phone call on the clock and using my company credit card to handle the exchange rate then pay the company later. I even have Garmin Basecamp installed here at work so that I can maintain the GPS for our truck driver and help him plan smarter routes for pick ups and deliveries. When I was doing LD rallies I did most of my route planning from here at work. As long as my work is getting done I'm in the clear.

    Obviously no porn but that's just common sense. Youtube, Facebook, most anything else is okay.

    I don't understand the whole buy a vehicle, mod the crap out of it and then put it up for sale with barely enough miles to be broken in yet thing? I see it with trucks all the time too.

    I can't imagine they are doing better than breaking even, if that on the cost of the mods and time invested.

    One thing most of you may not have considered. Owner could be a dealership employee who bought in at a discount price on bike and farkles then likely did most installs themself. When I worked for a Harley dealership any full time employee or even part timers after a set number of years could buy one brand new bike each year for cost plus $500. My employee discount at the time was anything I bought I got for cost plus 10% on all parts and gear. There were 3-4 times per year that Harley would release to the dealers a catalog of overstock or soon to be discontinued stuff that the dealers could buy up at substantially discounted prices yet still move at full retail. I bought my ex g/f a Screamin Eagle 2 into 1 exhaust, designed and made by Supertrapp, for her Dyna Superglide that retailed for $649 for $179 under one of those deals. Coworker at the time bought a pair of custom wheels for his Softtaill that retailed for $1100 each for only $249 per wheel.

    He doesn't even need a helmet, his massive balls will protect him from anything.

    Don't get me wrong, both are overpriced for a 10,299 msrp bike, but I definitely prefer the blacked out one to the baby shit green one :rofl:

    I'm surprised they didn't try to cafe racer it out, being from portland..

    I'm one of those people that think modding things is half the fun, so I get it, kind of doing it with the Navi currently. About once a week I think I don't need that and have been debating selling it before the market on them cools.

    :rofl::rofl:
