"Cafe Racer" such a loose term! Craigslist "Gem" of the week!

I hope these idiots keep screwing up all the KZs out there. Then I will have the only non-molested one left on the planet and it will be worth a zillion dollars. Hack on idiots.bj

How does a seat covered in tape and red motor (probably painted in the frame) make it a "cafe racer" for $1200??
Damn these people are high

Shit, I'm high as hell most of the time and even I know better than that. These people are stupid.

"It runs and drives grey" Is "grey" some new word you young whippersnappers are using these days for "cool"? ;) (I know, it's a typo).

It really is a sad state. Nobody is perfect and I have corrected some bad ads of my own, but so many of these jokesters just don't even care when they are trying to sell things. Then they wonder why it doesn't drag cash out the buyers' pockets. Do they not know that you can get a NICE kz400 for less than $1200? Do they ACTUALLY think a tape seat and a spray painted engine make a custom bike? Where would they even learn to do something like that?

"It runs and drives grey. Shifts great. Engine has lots of power. Come and take it home. May trade for other vehicles or motorcycles. Maybe MacBook."

...probably referring to the plume of smoke trailing behind when it runs, and drives. That's no typo, man!

Dangerous subframe, retarded pipes, no frent fender, monoshock geometry is totally fucked up, header wrap, shitty tires, hideous headlight configuration, zero gauges, stock length cables look ridiculous, zero performance upgrades, to name a few.

It sure is!!

Too bad the one on the left side of the tank is an inch or three further back than the one on the right, which is slightly tilted to the front.
 
but the important things are there
1. White tank with honda logo
2. exhaust wrap and no muffler
3. "cafe" style seat

The rest doesn't matter, its not important
 
It looks so empty under the seat...maybe a 5 gallon bucket would fit nicely...or a 20 gallon aquarium. Always love listings titled "bike for sale"

Haha bill of sell. What a moron. I bet that photo was taken right where that bike was built. Well let's not even call it "built". How about butchered.

It looks like they didn't even have the front brakes off. Looks like oil/dirt hiding behind the caliper bracket from a previous fork seal leak (?) And to not even take a wire brush, at the very least, to the rusty rear brake pedal. If they couldn't spend time on tedious cleaning, suspension geometry is out of the question. I'll pass on that grass
 
Like the custom fade on the paint job on the motor. I see what he did parking it in front of a scrap heap to make the quality build stand out.
 
Bill of Sale is all you need in Georgia. No titles prior to 1983, unless you're transferring an already existing title.
