I am selling my bike. I have the title but it is not in my name. I can provide you with a bill of sale. The bike has a gas leak from the carbs which I will be rebuilding this week. the speedometer stopped working about 400 miles ago. I just replaced the rear tire with a 160/60/17ZR. this bike can and will do 0-60 in 3 flat. I know because I have done it. This is a very powerful bike. I am not asking 1500 obo I am selling it for $1500 firm!!! No test rides unless you have cash in hand. Do not call or text unless you are buying the bike The pics posted here are what the bike looks like right now so dont ask for pics. do not waste my time asking questions about the bike.

I love ads that threaten prospective buyers. Very enticing, really motivates me. Of course, he should be charging extra since the title is not in his name.

He may be selling it but it won't be sold.

WILLING TO TRADE FOR SOMETHING OF EQUAL OR GREATER VALUE

I have an old, broken weed whacker that I can offer him.

The only consolation is that he is not asking double or triple the price.

I think it was almost worth the asking price in the "before" picture. :-\\\

[dorkburger]

Wow, that makes me sad

 

[duaneage]

I think we need federal legislation to prevent atrocities like that.

he wrecked what looked to be a good seat and I bet that paint is going to stink and smoke for awhile(and then flake off) when the engine warms up!

well, it don't look that bad compared with other bikes seen here.... as to what I would pay? if I wanted it/needed it? it'd just depend on what else was out there.
as to overpriced? $5,000 !!!View attachment 18893 it's not strictly a motorcycle but it was listed in with them . Kind of puts things in perspective, maybe.

 

[selzer85]

you know you build custom bikes when you get carried away with the gloss black and yellow paint. not to mention the custom bobbed seat and fender.
i like how he left the stock roto tiller bars.

 

[dorkburger]

Right, everyone knows that to cash in, and sell a pseudo cafe racer,one must cut the back end off , and install clubman bars....As the pool of good restoreable bikes shrinks..I don't have a a problem with modified bikes, but when one is hacked up to try to cash in on a trend and turn a quick buck, i find it annoying.

If he had left it original and just cleaned it up and tuned it up, it probably would have been worth $1500.00. Now, it isn't worth 1/4th of that. Actually, as far as I'm concerned, its worth nothing now.

A new Segway is something like $10,000 so if this one's in good shape that's not a bad deal. The only problem with Segways is that there isn't exactly a huge demand for them. They don't get you anywhere much faster than walking and you can't use them in crowded areas. Their core market is pretty much rich kids and Google employees.

Uh, pretty positive there never was an 850T.

You missed the sarcasm

There was never a 16V 850, either
