I got a block tester (the only one in stock,

head gasket- no color change at all.

why did you buy it instead of just renting it? you could have put that
money toward qualified repairs?

I'm still not happy that somebody would sell a bike like that with
that amount of disrepeair and try and sell it for the price he did.
I'm actually glad I didn't try and ride the thing home.

i don't think anyone cares that you're unhappy

as others have posted, it's your fault you didn't do (or cause to have
someone else do) a proper inspection


at times i mind when people ignore the "motorcycle stuff" for
"personal" stuff (when it's negative in nature, anyway), but in your
case - are you the kind of person that would rather complain about the
bike not working or actually be riding? just be honest with yourself


it's clear you aren't going to get much sympathy =/

move on, IMO
