Nothing terribly special about it - looks like you could build it for less money. Shame about the tires.

Looks like most of us on the forum, can have a decent living, from building motorcycles in the next few years.
 
Yoshi exhaust; RFY shocks. I'm going to be rich!
 
Still got the center stand (there's 20 pounds easy to lose) and if I'm not mistaken, those freshly powder coated rims have been coated with the spokes and nipples in place. Unless he found perfectly matching gloss black spokes and nipples and laced the wheels with tape on every nipple to protect the finish.

I'm not knocking the seller - more power to him - but those bidders are idiots.
 
Looks like, most builders on this site, should pursue Ebay than Craigslist to sell their bike of every six months.

Hey Tim, pardon my stupid question. Explain your comment about the tires? I think they look the part but I don't know enough to know what kind they are from the pic to research whether they are crap or not...
 
lots of those bids are fake, real bidding usually happens within the last hour of the item ending, would a real bidder bid days before the item closed or try to swoop in at the last minute to get the bike at the best price??? I know what I'd do.
 
I love the shinko 705's but who the hell puts dual sport tires on a "cafe racer"
 
Must have been all shill bidding - closed at a dollar.
