That's what he probably paid Dustin kott to build it. That's why i spent money on tools.

Took less than 1000 miles to decide it was a total waste of good money. ;D
 
Yep... there really are many people who will pay, the best bet is if you sell one high... keep yer mouth shut they don't want to be proven stupid, like Ron White said... "I wasn't in public until you threw me in public"

Agreed. I think this bike started at $2000. If it keeps dropping it may be worth fixing lol

Some of us are actually kinda fond of them. :D
 
OK. Then hoist your skinny azz over one and ride more than 100 miles and report if ur huizengas are still numb or not. I can ride my KZ all day on the stock seat and whilr tired, no numb nu--. Boingo.A BGO.bj

Different horses for different courses, gents.
 
I was just gonna say: My Grand Cherokee is way more comfy for long rides. My 79 box Chevy pickup is way more fun. Nuttin' wrong with purpose built, even if it's measured 1/4 of a mile at a time.

That fore n aft Duggie is cool. Is the front brake a leather belt in a groove? That surprises me. I had thought they all used drum brakes by then.

I just did a 30 second search and looks like that changed between 25 and 29, so the bike may be older than 29.

Neat bike though.

You mean it might actually be a 1927 like it says in the title?
