Forget it. That is pure bullshit, seller wasn't honest enough to tell the truth.

It's buyer beware. If you didn't find out until afterwards it was on you to see what you were buying. How much are you out for changing ownership on the bike? Might be a wash in the end. If you have the ad you may be able to go to court if it was falsely advertised.
