I am not a shipper.  I can't deliver the bike to you.  It is the buyer's responsibility to pick up the bike.

If you want to pay when you take delivery of the bike, that is fine with me - CASH is best.

I will accept a CASHIER'S CHECK / BANK CHECK also and you and I can go together to my credit union and make small talk while the check clears.  (Takes about 20 minutes at my credit union)

I can be available any day of the week or weekends before 5pm to help with loading the bike and the title transfer transaction / paperwork.
