i see the owner hasn't even bothered himself with providing any information about what the bike actually is. It would take a massive mug to put a bid on that.

Ok, let's just say that this Lot was geniune (playing Devils advoctate here). By the looks of the engine, I'd say it was a typical iron barrel 4 speed machine. As far as I'm aware, these machines are no longer (and for a few years now) allowed to be imported into the USA. My guess is: The 'owner' tried to import the bike without realising the strict emissions regulations that the US of A currently has (for machines under a certain age). To my current knowledge, only the UCE engine is allowed into the USA. This guy got it wrong and simply wants to off load the bike.
