Craigslist "funnies"

[winfield]

This one just creeps me out.... The bike is nice but the seller has issues...



I just don't feel right letting your perky power commander III take on your original 118 bhp and 75 ft-lb of torque sit idle so much of the time; there has to be a better rider for you out there.

Much like when your first owner let you go in 2010, I will have a hard time saying goodbye to your torquey groans and good times. I'll happily send your rear seat cover, original sprocket and unused Corbin seat along with you. I hope you can look back at our time together as positive and know that, as a young bike with only 13k miles, you have many more good miles ahead of you.

And I have to confess, that though I still get a thrill from riding you, I have been seeing a couple Hondas and a Kawasaki lately. I can't ask you to stay around any longer, idely watching the other toys get all the attention.

Might be worth checking out if you live in the area. Looks like 19k miles on the clock.

Too bad it's a 79, plus, it's only worth 1/3rd what's he's asking

That Honda has got some style, though compared to this ebay wonder. BuyNow for $3000

Ha ha. That is the second biggest pile of crap I have ever seen.

Another hack-up with inflated valuation... do these EVER sell? This one is higher priced I guess because it needs a "tune-up".

1982 Suzuki GS1100G - $5500 (Lees Summit)

Unfortunately I'm having to put my 82' Suzuki GS1100G up for sale due to primarily health issues. It's a fully custom rebuilt bike but has a clear Mo. title in my name. I'm asking $5,500 though I have more than that invested, but, she needs to go and hopefully to a good home. Due to my health it has been worked on and ridden some but mostly sitting since May/April so Timing and Ignition could probably use a tune up. If interested please contact Kevin via email or text. Thank you.

If it's especially good at riding across those bridges, it might be worth it-but seriously, $5500?and why o why do people have to blog about intimate personal details in an ad?
....as to "ever selling",good question. Here's one of my faves that's been reposted from a year ago

But it's got the front fender delete, what more could you ask for!

With all that new stuff, so where is the new bike then?

 

[Gorminrider]

....and that blanket rolled up under the headlight...what's it for?

I agree. I have always been under the impression that a "cafe racer" was stripped down. Anything that did not make the bike go faster, stop quicker or handle better was deemed "unnecessary" and removed. :-k

This starts with a large, heavy shaft-driven bike (Tom will be pleased that it was an L), then adds stuff.

Saddlebags and some sort of leather skirting over carbs:

Chrome visor over the headlight:

Stock"L" bars turned upside down:

Suzuki 1000 1981 cafe motorcycle - $900 (Van)
condition: good
size / dimensions: 1000

Cheap and reliable
She ripps, lotsa parts and new seats come with.

Shifts smooth and is a fun ride

Yeehaw, giddy up lone ranger!

"Saddlebags and some sort of leather skirting over carbs:"

That is an English riding saddle

 

[Gorminrider]

Polo, anyone? ..haw! a bike for Little Lord Fauntleroy

That's for when it breaks down and you need to sleep in the ditch...

 

[Spyder]

Well, he didn't hack the hell out of it, and he isn't asking a million bucks. If the "extra" parts and seats that come with it are everything it is missing? Then maybe not such a bad deal... Looking beyond the fact that it's an L of course...

Sure is, looks more like an All-Purpose style than a Hunter/Jumper or Show
