    I sent this guy a question through ebay: “A very peculiar design. To me and many of my friends this looks like a torture device for any rider. Not surprised you have no bidders.
    Have you ridden this bike as long as 1 hour on public roads?
    Just curious.”
    Did not received an answer. Was I insensitive?

      Perhaps you should have told him that you don’t trust eBay for buying bikes.
      You would like to see a video of someone ridding it & shifting gears before you will consider bidding.

          Wow...

            2 & 3 are low on compression, but look at the deep blue on pipe #4

              Looking closely at this, I don't see how it could be ridden around the block, or loaded onto a trailer.
              Maybe 1 inch ground clearance, plus those tiny roller wheels.
              But, I don't know anything about custom show bikes and cars. They bore me.

                How can it even turn or lean with those casters on there?

                  Looks like it ain't got fork springs either, no room to move.
                  Maybe compressed air tank connected to the fork tubes? That would lift the front.
                  The back is solid mount.
                  How come the mirrors? You can't ride it anywhere.

                      Can't complain about the price on that 650 Kawi, just a bit too antique for my taste. Because of the wire spokes it looks like it's actually a 79, not an 80.
                      If I wanted a 650, I'd make a serious offer.

                        Points cover says it's an 80.

                        The kerker has some value.

                          Another one bites the dust and he wants $3000 for it:


                          1980 GS1000GT (Daily rider with a 1983 1100G engine)
                          1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
                          1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

                          Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.

                            I have yet to see one on the road, but them or V twins never ride my kind of twisty country road.
                            Something to ride and show off in front of a saloon.
