Certainly a bit odd, but obviously knows his bikes

Bizarre. First time I checked out the Ad, photos were mixed between FJR and ST. I have just viewed the ad again after Gary's post and ALL photos are now of an FJR.
Getting wind in my hair while I still have some.

One theory is that he owns both very similar bikes and has got the fotos scrambled? Of course the one he is keeping is the STeed!

Looks like he has a white vehicle fetish going, judging by the flash car in the ST photo.

Pretty low kays for an ex-Police bike.  I guess the heated grips were installed by him (or the auction buyer), so it would have had even lower kays at auction.
Pretty good buying with that service record, modest kays and fair price.
