Someone is selling off his Duc front fairing.. $5,000

 

Are they donating to his charity?

 

Selling for a down payment on a house lol

 

They can Keep it for 1/5rh the asking price.

 

Would be cool to have. I'd be a bidder if it was for charity, or at least 50/50 charity and owner.

 

Meh, it’s a piece of a motorcycle part. If it were something that NH actually wore and was an item that was actually his like a glove, leathers, helmet etc. but a piece of plastic of a a bike really doesn’t have a lot of meaning, to me anyway. And for sure a little tacky considering.

 

Cool but not $5000 cool in my opinion.

 

It says it was a personal gift from Nicky. cant be that hard to figure out who owns it.

 

That makes it really f`n tacky.

 

Yeah, fuck that guy.

 

How so? Unless I’m missing something, that tells me it could be anyone from a struggling family member of his to some fan with VIP passes one weekend?

 

I don't get it. Some dude is selling an item of value on the internet. Entirely possible that the sale is not what the guy wants to do, but what he needs to do to raise funds. Why the hate?

 

Everybody has an opinion.

If it truly is a friend of his and if he really knew Nicky and was a friend, I personally would find another way to make money.

Anybody that really knew him and was truly his friend would not sell it off for cash.

IMHO

 

I can think of several situations that would make me sell something I value highly...a sick family member with high medical bills, paying for my child's college for example. In fact, I think Nicky would be fine with the sale under those circumstances.

 

Because a crashed fairing that any of us with a pit pass and half way decent schamoozzing skills could get that for free at a race, which is exactly what this guy did....now he thinks essentially a piece of trash is worth 5 grand and is using some sob story of buying a house as a reason to sell. In fact, he’s just delusional as there was no story of purchasing a house 2 weeks ago when he put it up for sale the first time.

 

Then he is a fool and won't get his money. Market forces and all that.

 

As I said just my opinion.
And I would agree with what you said in that situation too.

I guess I'm pretty cynical about people's motives these days just from what I see in society.

Not that I couldn't be wrong.

 

Just says it was a personal gift... not directly from Nicky... at least not where I saw it posted...

 

Yo I got a bunch of sewing stuff from my dead mom, lowest bid takes it all!
