seven fitty's are made of unobtainium around here,
1000$ just for a titled frame
non running turd sacks get sold for over 2k
that would probably pull in 4-5 around here unless he's in a real hurry

I'm betting asking price is easily more than $5K.
Where is "around here"?

I'm about 99.9% certain that is a Carpy built bike.

Has his little speed hole pattern on everything, the Yoshi knock-off exhaust he builds, the seat he makes. I imagine whoever owns it wants $10K or better.

 

[Tune-A-Fish]

Looks like an old hooker

 

[teazer]

That's the first nice thing anyone said about that bike.... ;-)

Around here is Sherbrooke Quebec
No one want's to buy a finished product for more than that, because for around 5-6k you can build a decent bike.
No doubt the asking price is more than 5, probably around 8k, but why spend that on someone else's vision when you can have your own built for the same price?

Gaudy piece of shit if you ask me. Way too much going on (too many speed holes, little switches everywhere, gold engine covers are ugly, headlight too large, etc) and the gold frame is not flattering. I actually hate it, which is something that I don't say very often.

Definately reminds me of a carpy build- and I don't like his builds either.

He says it isn't. That's all shit that come from Carpy.

Don't sugar coat it sbaugz, tell us how you really feel. ;D (I laughed my head off when I read your post).

I'm with you, too gaudy, but if someone gave it to me, I'd take it right to CL and buy something I really want.

good lord did you see the right foot rest and bracketry ? actually the whole bike looks like it was designed and built at a crystal methodist convention
and gold,jiminy christmas ,gold has got to be the ugliest color i have ever seen on a frame

But...I kinda like the gold frame and wheels

 

[Green199]

Have they changed the swingarm to accept shocks with an 'eye' on the bottom instead of a clevis, but kept the stock mounts?
