Gorgeous V11 Sport on FB Marketplace

Saw this and felt it was too good to keep to myself. It's in Lancaster, PA. Despite the comedy attempts in the description, it appears to be legitimate, but i don't know for sure. I do not know the seller, and am not associated with this listing in any way:

Any chance you could copy and paste that to here? It sounds like it might be fun to read, but one apparently needs a facebook account to see the ad, and I don't have one.

Sure - here is the description:

@4corsa thanks for that. What a brilliant text.

 

And it appears to have the rather nice Magni fairing on it. If it wasn't in the wrong country, I could well be seriously tempted.

Some of the pics are a little bit soft (out of focus).

The seller should have taken photos in better light conditions; he seems to have wanted to give it an artistic touch, but when you want to sell a motorcycle, you need to give as much details as you can to your audience.

This one is dedicated to you, see the tag?: "VERKS".

Sorry, don't get that.

 

As far as the photos go, yes, not enough light. Most of them are in focus (more or less) somewhere in the picture, but not for the whole bike. Too little light = small f-stop number/ large iris opening = poor depth of field. Taking "art" photos matches the light-hearted text, but yeah, he could have done better.

I thought it would be close enough to "werke", because we are limited to 5 characters if you want your own plate...

Ahh. What popped up in my mind was "Verkehr" (traffic) and some kind of abbreviation of that.
