Oh, that does look way off
Must be an LC bowl or something

It shouldn't matter if its an lc bowl, they dont fit like that more like the head light bracket thats holding it was changed in some way or not the correct one.

Funny I browsed that and never noticed the headlight, very strange
Very high priced too, particularly for a 250, it’s not a rare paint job either, it’s just been repainted at some stage
A few people have put up bikes at very inflated prices of late

Something wrong with the headlight/nose cone/clocks fitting or bracket.
The top of the clocks should sit below the nose cone plastic and shouldn't be seen through the screen, and headlight shouldn't be recessed by 30mm+.
Weird but probably fixable.

With the nose cone pointing downwards it looks like a sad bike.

Its weird, I just dont see how this can be achieved, it either fits or not. Maybe its not got the right light bracket.
Its a lot of money for a bike with an obvious fault.

Ahh ok, cool. I see it now... not a great advert, i feel he has no idea what it is or anything about them. sigh. Quite a lot of like there, but not enough for 13k. Even has the extra 'obligatory if youre restoring an LC and have no idea' decals etc. |

looking again... are those the JL pipes that look like an AllSpeed with an Allspeed sticker? |

They aren't JL as the cans are riveted on at the silencer and the hanger bracket bolts on to the last cone I see why you would think this though, they are very upturned at the ends I suspect they may be original Allspeeds rather than the Gibson version Steve |
