You're probably looking for a very specific buyer is all. When the right person sees your bike they will be willing to drop the coin. It may take some time but I wouldn't bend if you don't have to sell it. I see a lot of half ass "cafe" bikes for prices similar to what your legit work of art is up for.

Sounds like a smart call.  Thanks for the insight and opinions bud, it is appreciated.  i guess i've decided that at this point, i will keep it until i get it 100%, ride the shit out of it and try and sell it next spring after taxes are paid out, when everyone is looking for bikes and has money. 

Also, couldn't agree more on the half-ass cafe bikes up on CL, so much shit its incredible.

I took some glamor shots of the bike yesterday, thought i'd share.

Dashing.. Really love the expression the drop down bars, polished steel, natural rubber grips and leather seat gives the bike. Inspirational.

Bought the blank plate holder and modified it by shortening it and adding some speed holes.  Thanks!!
