    Very nice detailed ad but it think he could have finished the bike in the time it took him to write it.

      Nice touch, including the pics of someone else's bike he was copying. "It will look like that, honest."

        That is so true, but I tend to think it's not ridden much. Look at the rear fender. Not much lean angle there.

        Yeah, it's one thing to say, "I'm crazy, I built it." But if you said you bought it, you'd be certifiably insane.

          I was laughing at $3700 for the first pic. Then I found out it's only parts, the first and last pics are (crack) pipe dreams.

          "Hey, this is what I paid for all these parts, so that's what it's worth!"

                      If you can't fix it with a hammer...

                      I bought a junked 350 when my '68 Camaro blew it's 327. The shop had their chain falls on the branch of a big tree. "I got no tree like that," I told them. "You got a swing set?" they replied.

                      Somewhere there's a photograph of me swinging on a V-8.

                          I would think that "250 Yamaha" gas tank is worth something.

                            I was almost fine with this until this part "only thing I didn't do was reseal fork seals, they leaked so I just drained fluid, they still work fine just not as stiff."
