Apparently i have a cheating husband that doesnt need the harley i bought for him, it was purchased in february this year and theres 926 miles on it. i dont know the engine size, but its very loud and in perfect shape. I dont care what its worth. the first 100 dollars gets it. and maybe he will cry more than i have been. I have the title and its in my name. Hes out of town (again) and will need to be picked up before saturday. thats right the first 100 dollars. I just want it gone.

Sorry i had to air my personal business on C.L. I put it out at the end of my driveway and a passerby bought it. he gave me 150.00 now lets see who will be crying when they get home.

Sounds to me like she just posted about 80% of her own obituary.

Could be a good "Cops" episode. Something tells me they'll be a domestic dispute at that household.

Could be urban legend come to life cause I've heard that story before.

Could be "Fair Market Value", they are a little inflated off the showroom IMO

or

Could be the soon to be Ex guy will say "At least you didn't give it away."

It's a story you have heard before because too many guys can't keep it in their pants when they should. The woman then sells the bike and what ever else she can to hurt him back. Some cases are true and I imagine others are just stories. I know some are true because I know a former couple that this happened to. Wasn't a Harley but a vintage car but same idea. There was a domestic dispute and cops and all, the guy tried to sue her for it too and lost.

Years ago, when working in uniform I met with a guy who was practically in tears. He and his wife were going through a divorce and a judge had ordered them to decide on an equitible split of assets or sell the assets and split the money. They guy was upset because his wife had given him a dollar and told him that was his half of the sale of their classic Corvette. I directed him to go to the judge, because there was nothing I could do. I heard that the judge ordered her to get the car back and have it sold for a resonable amount. She had reportedly sold it to a friend and was planning on buying it back after the divorce was final.

Can't live with 'em, can't gut shoot them and leave them in a field.

I've said too much.

This is an old urban legend. It used to be a car for a dollar.
I seriously doubt this was real.

.... I guess you are right. Maybe there is still time to contact
my new Ethiopian wife for my share of the diamond mines. She
said the overseas marriage permit would only cost $500.
