This week on our motorcycle podcast Liza gets a new bike which was not exactly advertised correctly. But in this case it's not that the owner was being deceitful, it's more that he just wasn't aware of some issues. So we discuss the ins and outs of buying a used bike, and give some tips on how to negotiate. In other news, Nak is back on his bike! And the first thing he did after recuperating from a broken collar bone? A wheelie, what else!? But the biggest news is that Bagel showed up to the garage on a Buell Blast. ??? No, we haven't converted him yet, he's just helping out a friend to get it fixed up. With Liza, Miss Emma, Naked Jim, Nak, Bagel, Jordan and Kris.
