Here's the picture...with the associated link afterwards...if you read the write up it sort of gives the game away.

I can't spot what's wrong AFTER reading the link.  Apparently the spoof was intended to catch me.
He was fun while he lasted.

I got it! I got it! Honda DOESN'T make motorcycles for an ELF to ride, right?! They're strictly into producing machines for Gnomes, Leprechauns, Banshees and the like...but NOT for ELVES!!! (question MY powers of deduction, will ya ROD???!!!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Funny because now the listing says it's being removed from bidding until the forks can be fixed

Front forks 180 degrees out of phase

Is that like a "leading shoe" brake?
I really hate it when folks throw beer kegs at my bike.

There actually is a leading shoe in drum breaks and twin leading shoe in some.

Well done for those that got it...the brake at the front is 180 degrees out ( wrong way!)- the old "beer keg fell on it routine"- doesnt seem so convincing does it. Dwight- you need help mate!
