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

C'mon. It's a seat and some clean up away from all good. $3500 is steep. Real steep, but the bike isn't THAT bad.

its missing a tail loop in the back. Looks like he cut the frame and it let half of the seat exposed.

unfortunately that price isn't that unrealistic over here. for a (more) stock one amyway, however the chances of passing that State's (New South Wales) annual roadworthy certification without engineers certificates for the swingarm, front end, wheels and frame mods relegate it to parts value

holy crap batman, $9400??

I genuinely LOVE this bike, but I'm pretty sure that even with that paint job you could build it for under half that.

Actually, check out his other ads. Apparently he is the king of 10k small displacement vintage rides. Cool bikes but pricey.

Easily, however, there are a lot who neither possess the time, nor skill to build it, and have money to burn.

For sure . . .

$9400 is a bit much for a 450cc, but it is a great looking bike. I expected it to go for somewhere in the $6K range.

If a shop could put out one such similar yet unique bike a month, it would be a good gig.

Dear lord 17 grand? That's just craziness

Dear lord 17 grand? That's just craziness

all for the distinction of riding a bike, with a seating/footpeg/riding position, like a girl squatting a piss
