    Why do I keep reading irrelavant BS like "brand new battery filled and charged" "brand new tires (not cheap ones) " yet throughout the whole BS ad, NOTHING is said about how the engine runs or how many miles are on the bike or what shape the cosmetics.... ? Who gives a $hit about the original tool kit under the seat ????? Hell i'm sure the original fork oil is still in the forks too ! Some people have to play the wannabe used car salesman I guess...

              Yeah - go ahead and ride into Sturgis on that. Oh wait, you'll have to push it in, and then the crowd can grab it for a Zuki drop?

                By no means do I, personally, find this 1000 attractive (or worth $3800). There's a bike for everyone, but this one ain't for me.

                  Gotta' love the "bobber" crowd. Guys spend countless hours molesting and modifying what could be a "more valuable" OEM correct bike, only to admire the finished bobber project for about a month, the the owner/builder immediately realize the bike is a total POS and the bobber ends up on craigslist.... Another trashed Suzuki GS....bummer.

                    Yeah really. I wonder how many folks who "bob" or "rat" their bike actually keep in and ride it.

                          I wonder how many miles were on it before the crash?

                            Did any of you see last week's episode of Pawn Stars? Corey bought a restorable '74 Husky 400 and had it bobbered. The guy who did the work charged him $8500 with a straight face. Corey says hell put a $20,000 price on it and see if it sells.
