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

[o1marc]

Huh, i didn't see a price. Those fine folks down east won't mind how I splain geography

There wasn't a price, which I hate, posters that post items for sale with no asking price. I texted him and asked.
It's north of me so it sounded strange when you said "down east"

I like this bike, but it might be tough to sell in the SLC market

Same guy sold this one for more than it's worth. It was posted here and heavily mocked as well.

$500 is a chunk for a burned bike, but lots of good parts... suspension would be a trick setup for a budget hybrid

So this is the second 200 mph go cart...are they assuming that bc the speedo is capable of 200 or bc those tiny wheels are sending crazy readings since the ratio wasnt adapted for change in tire size lol.

so I don't wanna give this to much valuable forum cred, but it actually has bids!

Remember that the last listing had a starting bid of $6k that no one bid and that wasn't above reserve, and he wanted $12k. All he did was lower the starting bid and delete the BIN that no one with brain was going to spend.

I believe the world record for a go kart is only 170mph.

If it's shill bid, they are smart enough not to use the same bidders.

Not Craigslist, and is in the UK on ebay, but I though this was too good not to share.

"not to much mocking up left before its ready for paint and final build".

At least their not asking stupid money for it.

I have a CBR1000RR engine laying around I want to build a cart around. Few places to race them locally. On a 1/2 mile dirt track, they'd be a blast.

They can be fun. I had an H1 in a cart I built, ran it at the drag strip a bit till they banned it as too dangerous in 1975. Mostly played around on the street in the neighborhood with it.
