    Freshly built custom XS400 Cafe Racer. Just finished this build, it's got brand new everything, with the exception of the motor. Bike has really low miles, engine/trans run and operate perfect. New tires, brakes, controls, paint, etc. Way too much to list, but I have receipts for everything. One off build, not another bike like it. Turns heads, lots of thumbs up........ likely because of the pink!! Open to offers, no trades please!

    Oh yeah that should sell fast
    I have owned a XS400 yamaha and I sure would never buy another one. Guaranteed to make your butt, hands and arms numb up to your elbows in 15 minutes. Unfreakin rideable for anything more than going out to the street to check your mailbox. I would call it the least enjoyable bike I have owned, FAR inferior to my CB350's.

      1980 Suzuki GS Very clean - $1400




      Very clean. The paint is a custom job of the original style. Clean title of course! Bike runs real good, fast, and fun. Runs good.
      HEY! almost identical bike near me (it is same pic) LOL, there's a total of about 70 for sale by owners. Odd thing I keep seeing a guy commuting past (going other direction) on a GS , Pretty sure , but has a Vetter fairing so hard to be certain...I was hoping maybe it was seller since it's a small place this time of year.
      Guess not now anyway.
      Only other funny is a "Roller" for $5000 , Hardtail chopper frame , no motor...TOO MUCH to mention...Ad states it has $12,000 in body work on it, and frames similar alone are $3,000...LOL, can I test ride it??? , How fast does it go??? wait it has twelve thousand in work and $3000 frame and how fast does it go??? OH, you have to kick like a kid scooter? Does it go as fast when kicked like a scooter? wait $15, 000, no shock(s) and no motor?
      I'd post a link but still learning to copy stuff on mac and it's a small place here , like everybody knows everybody and has cousins with everybody etc. , different place than I'm used to. Good thing somebody warned me ahead of time. It's sort of nice to actually care about others around , actually majority are Americans too, very odd change from Northern VA / D.C. metro...

        A year or two ago there were a bunch of fake ads for a beautifully restored Suzuki T500. The real bike was sold for something like $8k. The subsequent fake ads were for around $2k.


        As with this 1100E, I don?t see the point.

            What a wide variety of GS's available around there.

            Also a great example of how (not) to gear up for a ride!

              Really. That ad has been up for at least a year. Guess he hasn't moved yet....I was just commenting to my wife the other day, wondering aloud why people would put up pics with their kids in them.

                  I wonder what condition the bike underneath it all is in. That might be a bigger selling point.

                            1971 Honda 750 CB750 ATV - $1400

                            1971 Honda CB750

                            engine displacement (CC): 750
                            fuel: gas
                            transmission: manual


                            Why be boring? This is a fabricated Honda 750 ATV. It runs great. It could also be brought back to stock, as the builder told me the frame was not altered, these were bolt on parts. The engine is a 1976. You could make a bar hopper trike of it I suppose. There is no title, but I will give a bill of sale. I only listen to offers in person. This is posted on many sites. Please include a phone number. If this ad is still up, it is still available, so any inquiries about availability will be deleted. Not interested in any trades.
