      • motorcycle or other vehicle:
        - make [MANDATORY]
        - model [MANDATORY]
        - year [MANDATORY]
        - Pictures [FIRST THING THAT WILL BE ASKED FOR IF YOU DON'T, BUT NOT MANDATORY]

        - title info
        - current condition
        - maintenance history
        - accident history
        - location
      • If selling riding gear, include:
        - size in the title of the thread. [MANDATORY]
        - in your post, include: intended gender/body weight/height/inseam/waist range that best fits the item.

    • Do not include the price in the title. You won't be able to edit it later. Put the price in the body of your post.
    • DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO 3RD PARTY SALES SITES Copy/paste your ad to BARF and make sure it includes the info above.
    • Edit your original post and change the price there... many buyers will not look beyond that point if you change the price later on further into the thread. Also, remember to add SOLD to first line of the first post when the item has been sold.
    • Please use the "Report this post to a moderator" (
      ) option at the lower left portion of the post if item is sold or to report erroneous posts or threads, and it will be taken care of.
    • With any indication that an item is sold, the thread will be locked by moderators. It is not fair to other valid ads to be pushed down the list when side discussions bump a sold ad to the top of the list. Moderators will do their best in changing the title and adding a 'sold' to the beginning of the title to save a few clicks for others.


    3- Buyers, BEWARE!!!

    • Pricing - Know the current market value of the bike. Check Kelly Blue book, NADA, CycleTrader, Ebay, Craigslist (even though some people on Craigslist are asking non-realistically high prices and will never be able to sell the bike at their asking price), and know what the current market value of a similar bike is before considering a purchase. Consider the maintenance work or fixes that YOU need to do to the bike, and factor that into the price. It is ok to pay more for a bike that has had all of the maintenance work done to it recently, or pay less and get a bike that needs some work, but you must know this in advance and be ok with it.
    • Inspecting the bike: if you are not experienced yourself, have a mechanic or an experienced friend check the bike before making a purchase. Crashed bikes:This is even more important if you are buying a bike that is being sold at a cheaper price with damages that the buyer is required to fix. In these cases, doing a frame check that will show any frame/fork/geometry damages is HIGHLY recommended. Do NOT simply rely on the information that the seller is providing, even he/she may not be aware of all the problems. Have the crashed bike checked and know what you are getting into.
    • Clean title, Salvage title A clean title doesn't mean the bike is free of serious issues. A Salvaged title doesn't mean the bike may have any problems. Every case is different. Some bikes are seriously damaged in a crash, but an insurance claim is never made on them, so they still have a clean title. Some bikes have had mostly cosmetic damages in a crash, but the insurance company decided to pay off the bike and salvage the title rather than spending the money to fix it. Know what you are getting into and don't make any assumptions based on what the seller is telling you.
    • Registration: Know about the current registration status of the bike. Check with DMV if you have any questions about any possible back fees and other title/registration questions (out of state title, no title with bill of sales only, etc.) before purchasing the bike.
    • Some additional tips: You can find some more useful info here: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216958

    4- DO NOT make your opinion known in the seller's ad

    • Comments within a sale thread should be on topic and educational. Aggressive critiques and inside jokes will not be tolerated. Constructive dialogue is a valuable feature of the barf classifieds section and community as a whole. Flame wars and unsubstantiated accusations help neither seller or buyer. Don't fuck it up, because the next step is disabling the "reply" feature entirely.
    • If you disagree with a price, keep it to yourself. The seller has set the price. If you don't like it, don't buy it and move on. If you really feel strongly about it, then PM the seller.
    • If you are interested in an item, feel free to PM, email or contact the seller privately. Feel free to post if you need clarification... however, your post should be in line with above mentioned rules.
    • If you are aware of a serious issue with an ad (SPAM, stolen goods, a frame damaged bike being advertised as a 'never crashed' bike, etc.) please PM a moderator about it.

    5- DO NOT SPAM the classifieds section on BARF

    • Spamming entails using only the classifieds sections of BARF without taking part in other sections of BARF (regardless of whether the ad is for a personal item or a business.) The appeal of BARF classifieds is to enable and connect BARFers with some established history on BARF to one another.

      BARF isn't craigslist, ebay, cycletrader, etc. Buyers who are looking to buy from random strangers do so on one of the above mentioned sites. Those who only post in Classifieds sections and don't take part in other parts of BARF are no different than any other random sellers on Craigslist, etc., and should use channels other than BARF to try and sell their items.
    • If you're affiliated with a store/shop, please contact budman regarding sponsorship options. ALL non-sponsor commercial posts will be deleted. Site sponsors should post using only one account that is assigned a BARF SPONSOR tag.
    • We encourage the use of the classifieds by active contributing members. New members may post in the Classifieds forum after establishing minimal history on BARF (15 days and 15 posts). If you actively attempt to circumvent these minimum requirements only to post in classifieds, your account may be suspended. After reaching these minimums, posting only in the classifieds without taking part in other sections of BARF may result in being banned from BARF.

    6- DO NOT repost funny/strange/not-related-to-you ads from Craigslist or elsewhere on BARF or anywhere else for that matter.
    • No reposting
    • No reposting
    • No reposting. If what you're about to post isn't for sale BY YOU, don't post it.

    7- SELLING FOR A FRIEND:
    • Is not allowed.

    8- Feeler, Testing Waters etc:
    • Is no longer allowed.

      • If you are unsure of the fair price of your item, use the search function to research other similar items, ebay, craigslist, nadaguides, kelly blue book or whatever else is applicable. The classifieds section is not a discussion forum, thus not the place to be asking for opinions on market value that might lead to massive gray areas of conversation that violate preceding rules outlined above.

Mountain cabin for rent in the Sierras

Titus58

Need moar dirt
Hello All – we are now renting our cabin, and I wanted to extend a special offer to barfers to come give it a try :thumbup

It’s located in Blue Lake Springs, in Arnold, CA off Hwy 4 in the central Sierras. Sleeps 8-10, well equipped with large kitchen, 3bed/2bath + loft, washer/dryer, cable tv and Wifi. Great for two families or a group of riders...long flat drive way can easily handle 4-6 cars or trailers, and dogs allowed.

Nearby lake is 0.2miles away, great for swimming, sunbathing, fishing, and the lodge with pool is only 1.5 miles (day fees apply). Big deck with bbq, and cabin is secluded off the road nestled in the pines. Town of Arnold is 5mins away, with excellent market/deli, and numerous places to eat and shop, including the SnowShoe Microbrewery.

And the riding :teeth. You have wonderful and empty Hwy 4, and Ebbetts pass only ~30miles away – you can do loops of Ebbetts-Sonora all day long. And also excellent DS options – see recent RRs from Woodschick and SFMCJohn, and there is an OHV area ~10min away.

Good riding witb you last weekend Tim. Definitely interested in this. Love that area. You should come on my three day ride up there this month.

Need moar dirt
Thanks all for the positive comments, and my apologies if some were offended or thought this was spam - that was never my intent. I really love the Arnold/Hwy 4 area and wanted to share that with you all, and the barfers discount is my small way of giving back, as I've gotten so much from everyone here.:thumbup :love:thumbup

Whether you camp, motel, or rent a place , if you haven't checked out Hwy 4 corridor you owe it to yourself. It really is the unspoiled Sierra Nevada, with a tremendous amount of activities available and NO CROWDS :thumbup. When our boys were little we did a week in north shore tahoe for summer vacation every year for ~10yrs. Loved it, until it got too popular and commercialized...last straw for me was when it took me 50mins to drive 10miles from kings beach to tahoe city for groceries on a friday afternoon (with whiny kids in the car no less :wtf :rofl). We found out about Arnold soon after that and have been coming here for 20years, and it still remains "undiscovered" by the masses.

We love the outdoors, so camping, hiking, fishing, biking, swimming etc - and then of course BBQing dinner in the great outdoors:thumbup. There is just so much to do up here, and kids can run, play and be "kids" and are then usually pretty tuckered out in the pm, giving mom and dad some quiet time together ;). We camped up here and rented ourselves for many years before we bought our place. The mountains and forests are so gorgeous and peaceful, you can have a great time whether you do a ton of activities all day, or just sit and enjoy a good book down by the water or under the pines, with a cool drink in hand :cool


You can pan fer gold in the Stanislaus river thar too. :teeth (Gold pan 'n fish'in rod fit nicely on a bike fer a ride'in holiday. :thumbup )
Yes it does! You can get gold pans in town, and my favorite fishing hole is 17mins from the cabin on the Stanislaus...has hiking trails right there as well, and is sooo beautiful and peaceful that I'm happy being there even if I don't catch a fish - tho there is this big trout, guessing a native brown, that hides and feeds behind a huge bolder in the middle of the river, that I have hooked up once or twice, but he always outsmarts me and breaks free...don't think I would keep him if I actually land him, as we kinda got this understanding going, he's been dodging me for a number of years now....

Woo Hoo! Close to Murphys too!
Exactly right - Murphys is one of our favorite places! Between the shops, wonderful main street to wander, food offerings (Grounds FTW!), wine tastings, vineyards, and nice folks, it's a great little town :thumbup

That's AWESOME. I will defintley keep this place in mind after the lady pops and we get settled in with the little one. Are dogs allowed?
Yes on the dogs - we even have a dog run out front that's in the shade. Nothing better than seeing the delighted look of satisfaction on a dog's face after she's enjoyed a day in the mountains :thumbup I know my lab is telling me "I don't wanna go home..." with that look every time we pack up to leave.

Tim, I will DEFINITELY be booking this some time soon. I want to get up there with the wife and some friends, and I would also consider renting it with a group of hooligans...er...dualsport riders. Very cool!
Love to have you guys up there Aaron :thumbup It's a comfortable cozy place, nothing fancy but ideal for riders or hikers, etc - plenty of room on the deck to lay out the sweaty riding clothes to air out before the next days ride...and lots of room in the drive way for the necessary moto repairs :teeth

Good riding witb you last weekend Tim. Definitely interested in this. Love that area. You should come on my three day ride up there this month.
Ditto Ramon - 25 was a great ride - will check my calendar re your upcoming ride.

"just a fyi, the map for this cabin on the website goes to Arnold, Missouri. Not CA"....Actually that's pretty funny. He's right.
ROFL - that is hilarious :rofl...will be emailing the Rental company website gal very shortly to fix :teeth

Again, if anyone is contemplating a visit up to Arnold and Hwy 4 and wants to know more about the area, feel free to PM me - be happy to share with you :thumbup

Dogs allowed?? Wow! :wow My dad, brother inlaw and niece would love this! I'll try and do some convincing next couples nights.

An ex's grandparents built a place up there. We tried fishing in several of the lakes (Spicer? Alpine?) and ended up casting off the shore at the like near the house and softball fields. Also checked out some casino a drive away and Columbia.
