Craigslist "funnies"

Never seen a seat setup like this. Looks as if it would catapult the rider like an ejection seat.


1981 Honda CB750 Bobber Project Bike - $3500 (Los Alamos)

Whenever I see something like that, I just think the owner/builder/rider is dumber than yeast.

That's something he's already worked on?
My first impression was it was found in a scrapyard.

This makes a lot of sense??
offroad chopper!
I wonder who was the "pro" that hacked this perfectly usable bike up.

How would it feel to ride this off road?
The guy's probably ruined his spine.

That looks like something Hollywood would build to show a "chopper" being used for off road scenes. I just watched a cheesy movie called "Knightriders" (with Ed Harris) where they had bikes like this. They did have a nice CBX and SOHC Honda 750 in it, though.

I didn't think about that. Boy if those bolts broke it would drop you right onto the tire. Shinko wedgee....

Looks to me like, with the length of that seat swing arm, even if the shock travel were excessive, only the rear of the seat would contact the tire. Now, if the bolt broke that holds the "swingarm" to the frame, that's a different story. Looks like a nice solid build though.

Dumber than yeast? Looking at that bike i think you owe yeast an apology.

Absolutely! Yeast makes beer. 'Nuff said.

You can fit a lot of junk in this trunk!

Fun and PRACTICAL too! - $5950 (Moriarty)

https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/d/fun-and-practical-too/6587590347.html

Excellent handling and 100 hp to the rear wheel make this a FUN motorcycle. A 123 liter custom trunk makes it PRACTICAL too! Unique trunk has on board 12 volt aircompressor and tools for tire plugging. Aircraft riveted aluminum type construction trunk is powder coated and removes quickly for passenger accommodation. The package carrying capacity of this machine will bring JOY to mundane errands, no more taking the car instead of the bike because you have to carry something. Weather proof and lockable. Air cooled cruisers cannot compete for reliability, durability and longevity with this water cooled six cylinder car type engine. Vibration free, mirrors perfectly useable up to speeds well over 100 mph. Recent fluids change, valve adjust and spark plugs. Two service manuals, Honda and Clymer, special fixture to simplify rear wheel removal and replacement. Under 20,000 miles but increasing through normal use. In over 60 years of owning and maintaining 51 motorcycles, including four Harleys, the five Valkyries I've had were far and away the best of the bunch. $5950 without trunk, $6400 with. Price is firm.

Yes, but can I put a sheet of plywood in it? LOL

[dorkburger]

Ha, I think the ole sheet of plywood measure of a useful truck has finally died. Maybe because most homeowner type pickup trucks I see these days are shortbeds.

[aclaytonb]

Guess that qualifies my AWD Toyota minivan as a truck...it holds a stack of 4x8 sheets with no issue.

Most top-boxes are ugly but that is straight hideous.

Just looked at that listing. It's offered by Roger in Albuquerque.

PLEASE say it's not our own Burque73.
