If I went to see this bike I would carry my Colt .45! Why the .45? Because Colt does not make a .46. All kidding aside, this sounds like a scam and could be a dangerous encounter.
I had a strange experience riding my BMW yesterday. I went to get the annual safety inspection and after over 2:30 to get that accomplished I decided to go on a ride since it was not raining in Texas, I was suited up and it was a nice day in Texas (not too hot for June). I ride the CB1100 in summer as the BMW is a toaster in the summer.
Anyway two young lads on on bikes come roaring up behind me (I was doing the speed limit, so they came up fast) both pulled in front and both jammed on the brakes one in front and one on my left side. They tried to force me off the road for no doubt foul play. A little weave and boob and I left them behind. I was not particularly worried as I have my CCW and usually carry. The BMW has a higher top end than the CB as no limiter, it is smoother, but not nearly the power or brakes.
New experience, and rather strange, but strange things are known to happen in this part of the world. This was not in an isolated area, lots of traffic.
