Anyone else noticed this about bikes for sale in Ottawa?

Ever noticed that every bike for sale has never been dropped, raced, wheelied etc? Do people actually believe that supersports/superbikes are never used for their intended purpose/unintended purposes?
 
When i was looking for my smc I always asked if it was ever wheelied. No one ever did it. LOL
 
What's the best way to pick up a bike from out of GTA?

Same applies to Sabex. Find the bike that you want - be it Sudbury, Montreal or wherever. Make sure that the paperwork is clean (i.e. clean title if the bike is coming from QC). Get tons of photos from the seller. Agree on the pick-up / viewing date with the seller. Rent a van (buy/borrow a ramp), or if you have access to car/SUV with a hitch, rent a U-haul trailer for $20. Drive up there, inspect the bike, pay for it, get the paperwork, get the bike, drive it back. I got my first bike in Belleville, 2nd in Rochester, NY (only found 3 bikes that I like - 1 in Rochester, 1 in Montreal, 1 in Sault Ste Marie; bought the closest one).
 
That sounds like a plan; except I only have my g1.
 
Yes and no. The savings for me can only be realized if the bike for sale is on my way.
If it takes a day to drive there, a day to drive back, and a few hundred bux in fuel for the truck to go get it, the savings has to be at least $1500 or forget it.

Well, that's actually what the savings account to when you buy the bike over the border - at least $1500-2000 after everything is said and done.
