    all i can imagine is that chain snapping, swinging up and ringing the neck of whoever is dumb enough to ride the thing.

      I've not seen a clear tittle before, is that a new fetish?

              I agree. I wear a XXL or 48-long and am not fat. 6'-5" and 235lbs is not fat OR that is what I keep telling myself.

                That guy as been trying to sell is GK for a year now.

                Still asking for $400. Still look like trash to me.

                It does look trashed somewhat, but if it's mostly complete, I could see paying 3-400 for a restoration project like that, to me, not really out of line price wise.

                    Geez. A lot of people knock the XS650s, but I really liked my 78 XS650E. I only sold it when my wife made me (price for going to engineering school). Wish I still had it, actually.

                      Thats a good deal also, they don't come that cheap around here, and the GK's finished sell for 2500 to 3500 here, don't know why, but they get it, something about the baggers.

                          I don't for the life of me understand why people do those things to bikes.

                          What's with this no brake thing. A motorcycle, by law, must have two independent brakes.

                          What's with the exhaust comming at your leg and the chain trying to grab your ankles?

                                2013 Superbike Sport bike RRRRR - $14995 (Fort Worth) Craigslist ad

                                Awesome doesn't begin to describe this machine which has only 65k miles on it. Very lightly flipped end over end at185 mph on the freeway, but it suffered virtually no damage because I had the foresight to install frame sliders and a radar detector. I was very lucky I was wearing high quality sandals, as these prevented me from losing my feet. Anyway, this is the super rare flat black "dark" edition of which only a handful were made, so it has instant collector'svalue, and as Borat would say, is a P-M. Check out the different colored wheels! What appear to be abrasions through the bodywork are really special ventilation holes particular to thismodel sinceitruns so hot. Bow in the forks allows for two different wheelbases: one for really carving up the twisties,and the other, by just flipping the forks around, allows you to hang with your cruiser buds. All maintenance has been done by me in the back yard. The kids are a little ticked off that I drained the oil into their sandbox, but I explained to them that you have to make sacrifices for such an awesome machine. Now for the negatives. I lostthe keys but modified the ignition switch so you can use a screwdriver. The left rearset got knocked off in the crash, but I was able to weld an extension onto the swingarm pivot, and it works just as good as stock. The seatcover got very lightly rashed,soI just pulled the rest of the vinyl off and noticed it keeps you much cooler when riding (certainly the last week or so). Other than that I can't think of anything else. I paid $15,000 for it less than six months ago, so please no lowballers. Oh, one more thing. It does have a clear title but it has been stamped across the front of it with something like "non-rebuildable". Title is not in my name but regardless, you should have no trouble registering it. Only selling to buy a faster bike. Thanks for tuning in. Be careful out there folks. . .PSA
