$10,000!?

I mean it looks nice....but functionality....no. I see all sorts of failbots on that bike that would need fixed.

 

[CB350f Cafe]

Just curious, what's wrong with the bike that you don't like functionality wise? Only thing I see wrong is that damn price tag, then again, craigslist doesn't allow a zoom in feature on their pictures so maybe I'm not seeing something.

I'm taking a wild guess and say that that's how much the total conversion cost. The company that did the conversion has some interesting stuff for sale, though.

18 months ago, that would have brought $6800+/-. Today it would likely fetch right at $5000.

Nice bike.

If 90% of the parts came from DCC. Im sure he has $10,000 invested. In shipping alone. I do alot of shopping around for more reasonable prices.

It is similar to one I sold to a fellow in Philly . . .

You mean Benjies? They didn't do the "conversion", just sold him the bodywork. Do yourself a favor and search around for some reviews of Benjies parts and service...

I didn't notice the forward foot controls on it earlier. How to you get into a riding position on that thing

or pahrailisiss at best

 

[buckeyebike]

Who cares, light up a smoke and riiiiiide!

Funny- one can buy a new Thruxton from a dealer with clear title for a $1000 more than this joker is asking for his salvaged bike that needs $800 in parts. :

Chopped, streched, slammed, $1200 firm...in good condition just needs starter relay($80) and carb work...serious inquires only


Well, the slammed happens here... Looks like he did all the swell mods but can't clean/tune carbs or replace an easy part so it's off to market.

I'd hazard a guess and say that the wife had something to do with this sale. Just a thought.
