Will humor help sell a Royal Enfield motorcycle?

This blog lists Royal Enfield motorcycles for sale in the United States. So I read a lot of ads. Some sellers are knowledgeable and considerate. Others provide virtually no information.

And, every once in awhile, there's an attempt at humor. See whether you giggle or groan at the ad for this 2013 Battle Green Royal Enfield. It's for sale on CraigsList in Santa Rosa, Calif.:

2013 Royal Enfield for sale.
"Up for sale is my Military Classic Enfield. It's a badass bike with a classic look and proven third world technology.

"It even has a functional kick starter.

"It gets great gas mileage and is perfect for slouchy riding out to your next Antifa rally to take down the Nazis, or just get to work 'cuz jobs are great for the economy or something. Whatever floats your goat.

"It's been garaged and babied. The miles are super low (381, yes you read that right) because I bought a Yamaha R6 shortly after this one and, hey, if you've owned both you'll understand.

"Don't lowball me bro, but make an offer if you want to cruise down main street channeling a budget Captain America on this excellent piece of imported history.

"There's a cosmetic piece missing off the muffler and I can't find it. Absolutely just cosmetic but it lends to the look in my opinion."

"Title in hand."
