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

I didn't know Suzuki's were made in Germany? Amazing that that guy was able to collect the only 2 $30k Suzuki's on the planet, what a score.


And the dirt dobber nests on the 650 engine are free.

Maybe he meant $3,000? That wouldn't be nearly as out of line, especially if he took the time to actually clean them up.
 
This, on the other hand, is a great deal. Buy the bike, get the trailer for (almost) free!

Dang, nice airhead, nice trailer. That's a score right there. I've seen worse shape BMWs alone go for more.

Changing gears slightly, since we critique bikes of all kinds I'd like to get your opinion on this bike. I bought a 73/74 CB350 barn find for $300 from a kid. I spent this past winter stripping it down, cleaning and polishing, rebuilding carbs, etc to bring it back to life. Motor has only 4800 miles and great compression. Finished her by painting it (Triumph) Black Cherry.

I'm about to list it on Craigslist. The question is, what would you list this bike at, or pay for this bike if you were a hipster or noob? Just curious.

Thanks. Mike

Am I correct in that it is a bunch of parts and not an assembled bike?
 
"The motor, exhaust and wheels are off of the bike Needs to be assembled"

Right in the add. and yep 8K... if you don't like the price or simply can't afford it. DONT BUY IT!

The pics below the old eBay listing didn't show when I first looked at the ad. I just read where he bought it and took home and took it apart.
Ad, short for advertisement, not add, which is an infliction you may have. :D

Yep, I call it squirrel syndrome, but it's something I embrace.
What's your excuse?
