Craigslist "funnies"

[Rob S.]

Some people just don't get it that it doesn't matter how much you sink into a project, a bike is only worth so much. He's asking $2000 for this basket case:

Who sinks $3000 into an 1100GZ?!?

Oh, it "basically was hyabusa". I guess it's worth it because you can't get a running one for that little.

Between $400 and $600, if he's lucky.

I can hear his wife now: "I told you you'd never get it running."

Old guys love to begin projects, do a little reading, buy all the coolest stuff, then it just collects dust.
I can hear his wife; “Honey, we're out of beer, you wanna take the dog and get some?”

Rob, you only had a partial question there. I'll finish it for ya.

Who sinks $3000 into an 1100GZ and it still doesn't run?

For $3000, it should look and run pretty much like it did when it left the showroom 34 years ago.

LMFAO This was the Hayabusa before there was a Hayabusa....

WTF...

[Gorminrider]

yes, an unfortunate choice of picture when you are asking for $2000....but maybe the poor guy had it altogether at some point and now it's necessarily all apart for a wiring issue...it's sad more than funny.

Hell, I give away stuff like that.

I can't believe that thing is even safe to ride down the road, I'm really sick of this crap.

[Buffalo Bill]

WOW??? Like, are you looking to buy something that (for you) will define “Buyers Remorse”?
Only a sick pervert would pay that price.

As i'm looking at the seat/footpeg/handlebar distances my back, kidneys, wrists, calfs and thighs began to scream in pain. This thing is a rolling billboard for permanent chiropractic therapy. Is there something in the water that causes this kind of crap to be churned out endlessly?

"Meticulously maintained. Runs and drives perfectly"

He changes the air in the tires every month, and the chain idler has a built-in oiler.

"...military-themed chopper/bobber"

Yeah, flat camo green gas tank, ammo box for electrics and courier bag hanging from the frame. GI Joe at its finest.

[wymple]

But it's "super bitchin"...!

[JamesWhut?]

But it's "super bitchin"...!

Worth at least a thousand craigslist dollars.

I bet Jay Leno would love this, to use as a boat anchor.

I guess Idaho potatoes must be tainted in some way.



"Wow! So ugly it's awesome. Custom hand made beast. Fast, fun and gets a ton of attention."

Ugly is the new awesome I guess.

[Buffalo Bill]

That seat is what, 3 inches wide? So him and his skinny bitch ride on their tail bones?
Military could have used that ride for interrogations 15 years ago at Guantanamo.
