Title: I may be sellin'...Who's lookin'?
Post by: saint45 on December 05, 2012, 07:39:00 pm
For a few reasons(mostly personal) I may have to sell my awesome 2011 G5. I had great plans for this bike when I bought it. But NO money to finish. It is No. 16 off the california line (have the certificate). Bought 10/'10 from Munroe in S.F.
Broken -in properly(this isnt my first Enfield). EFI exhaust(have original too) Upgraded to a 102 link Diamond chain. Everything else is stock.
Its Black with 2100 mi. only.
Just testing the waters, i dont have to hurry.

I'd love to, but I really can't afford it.  I'm still searching for an old iron barrel in poor shape or not running, for cheap.

How does one know what the "California line" number is?
My California G5 Deluxe doesn't have any obvious number that I can see unless it's buried in the VIN code?

You obviously never got the secret decoder ring, but I've said too much already...

The last decoder ring I had said the secret message was:

E-A-T-Y-O-U-R-O-V-A-L-T-I-N-E, and your right.  That sneaky dealer probably took my ring with him back to Austria when he left.

Some of us must've gotten a "Certificate of Authenticity" when we got our bikes. They came with the first 100 California bikes produced.

The last message my bike decoded was E-A-T-Y-O-U-R-V-A-L-V-O-L-I-N-E.  Though he still seems to ask for Mobil 1.

you guys get diverted from the subject so easy. Kind of like kids suffering from ADHD. But I suspect in your case it's EDHD because the weather got to bad for riding. So Saint45  your in the east bay . Alameda? I am in San Lorenzo and intend to keep my 2011 G5 , my 5 yr old daughter has already told me I have to as it is to be her first bike. Girl's got class.
