I purchased a complete rear wheel assembly, including tire and tube, on Ebay for my Honda RX650R for less than half the price of new. This wheel looked like it was brand new, and the tire had about 75% of the original tread life still on it. I contacted the seller to ask why he was selling it, and he said he purchased the bike cheap from a friend who decided soon after buying it new that he just didn't want it, and he just thought he could get more profit by parting the bike out on Ebay. To this day I wonder if the guy was parting out a stolen bike - I'll never know.
