Re:Beautiful Raider! Scam? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
The first thing I do when I suspect a scam is Google an unusual line in the posting. Usually these scammers just copy another post. Google "2013 Yamaha Raider SCL #491 of 500 made" and the first result is for another CL post for the same bike at $11,900: https://austin.craigslist.org/mcy/d/2013-yamaha-raider-scl-like/6381596885.html . Yep, it's a scam. Sorry.

I also noticed a pattern when a bike seems too be a scam, there is almost never a city listed in the ad.
