There isn't one. Basically you post that you have something
for sale, where it is, and how much you're asking.
Negotiations are conducted offlist, and if you post like
this too many times certain people will let you know, by
making fun of you.

I had the HT radiator and reservoir bars. They are good for
street use, but they didn't fit perfectly under the shrouds,
at least not on my bike either. By that time I had broken
off the tabs on my shrouds and had them fastened with
zip-ties anyway so I didn't have any problems with the
shrouds popping off. In fact the shrouds were very useful,
since they gave me a place to zip-tie the shround onto.
Worked fine for 16,000mi.

Ok, the fair thing would have been to call Tim at
Happy-Trails BEFORE you posted this to the list. He would
likely have had a fix, or offered your money back. I have
bought a bunch of stuff from him, had issues here and there,
and I still would recommend Happy-Trails as someone to do
business with.

Just say it, or post on eBay. I think the Vendor thing is more to
keep advertising off the list on a daily basis.
Or get a BFH and adjust it to fit. ;-D
