Still without a bike

Now I have been in contact with a couple of private persons for buying a motorbike. I have found the craiglist very usefull for this purpose. By using the craiglist it is easy to find bikes and it is possible to search for bikes in specific areas or towns, which is very helpfull. I have so far mainly looked for bikes in Los Angeles and San Diago. The reason for that I have not found a bike yet is that I think some of the most interesting bikes have been a bit overpriced, and I have not been willing to give what they have been asking for. I have used Kellys Blue list as a referance, and have seen that the bikes that have been most expencive have been on the craiglist for some time.

Now it is easy to see that I should have starting looking in the private marked for bikes a bit earlier. However, it is still 3 weeks until I go with plane to Oslo (Norway) and start my journey, and I will be backpacking in Cuba more than 2 weeks before I go to LA and start the motorbike trip, so I am still not to worried about getting hold of a bike.
