He's right, "no one will have this bike". Probably tried to give it away and no one would take it.
 
This is what makes life, and this topic so interesting. Each dead horse has its' own charm. ;D

This is why people should not take drugs!

Actually looks a little like a ratty take on the Gurney alligator, those supposedly handled very well and went like stink. That 'air rider' on the other hand, I don't think so.

That ratty bike has no ground clearance. It can't take a normal corner without grounding out.....unless you think not being able to turn "good handling" it can't handle at all. The alligator had normal groud clearances it handled (could turn)

It also didn't have a shitty gas tank preventing you from seeing what's in front of you...

That's even funnier if you read it in a Boston accent.

I would keep walking, The Chinese have no game in these knock offs

yep, id offer cheap and stick with cheap... And that's assuming you have the right engine and not sticking another brand in it?

This would be a sub-100 only deal. If it has a title...
I would be dropping the Honda motor which this is a clone of in to it. I have a spare from an old project that's complete and in good shape with nowhere to go.
