A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
Sorry this happen to you and thank god you are okay!
I live in Los Angeles area also. I will not be surprise when the driver that hit you doesn't stop... First thing most drivers around here do is to see if they can get away... When you are on a motorcycle alone with no one to chase after...
Oil level must be check when the bike is upright (center stand)
Unscrew oil cap, wipe clean and reinsert cap but not screw in, take cap out and check oil level.
