Craigslist "funnies"

[Old guy]

I think I've figured out the formula

nice original running bike = market value +/-

custom = market value + 35-120%

cafe/bobber = market value + replacement cost of missing parts + 40%

"Art" = material cost x amount of shame you felt paying what you paid for it

Hey, look at me - I can bend and weld metal! I should be on TV.

It could dress up as a cool little parade vehicle, but 29 big ones? Nothing like reaching for the stars

 

[Spyder]

I love it when they don't even bother to suggest a price.

I think it even comes with two old bags.

This is the best motorcycle on the planet. BTW.

Um, so did I just over look the part where he tells us WHAT the bike ACTUALLY is?!? Or does "The greatest bike on the planet" sum it up?

And the blonde on the back isn't THAT ugly...

The redhead up front may be the owner's babe...and appearances can be deceiving. Those 2 ladies probably know what to do after the ride, rather than a lot of those porcelain dolls out there half their age. :biggrin:

This is too funny.

If they were still making low-budget heist movies, that would fit right in.

The cruel irony is that no one wants too anymore...

I'd take 'em. You get too picky, you end up alone.

Some vitamin V, and see what arises.

Lmao... Wow. This may have just become my new favorite thread!

FYI the Diamond plated jeep looks just like the hybrid car the guys on Top Gear made from scratch... Lol That thing was a pile.

1978 Suzuki GS100 Fully Custom One off Bobber Rat - $5900

 

[tom203]

Wow, too bad he didn't post this earlier... I think I can find pliers

1983 Honda CX650C! Needs a new gas tank, oil change, battery, front fork seals, and the rubber pieces that hold up the front blinkers. Asking $400 as is, located in Sidney, Maine. One of the terminals from the old battery broke off and is stuck on the cable, I just don't have pliers to get it off. It does have both side covers I just hadn't put it back on after removing the battery, and I do have the old battery so you can match it up to the new one.

 

[glib]

I think this fits the category...$4,000.

Looking at the first picture, he apparently removed the rear brake. :-k

Yeah, it's not as effective as the front, but still pretty darn handy to have. :-\\\

Here ya go if you want to roll your own "Buffalo Kat" like this one:

[h=2]mint condition rolling chassis KATANA - $300[/h]

The write up is still idiotic but more amusing than most:

Hello i have this mint condition rolling chassis from my 1997 suzuki katana. You don't see mint with the engine in it it's not a chassis, it's a bike when i took the engine it then became a rolling chassis. So it is just as i took out the engine it is mint. Please notice the 2500 horsepower engine straight out of Wonder woman's invisable jet.Can I ride it home? you may ask Yes you can as long as the person who drove you is willing to push. HOw fast can it go? I have a rope as fast as the car willing to pull you can go. It has brakes and a good suspention good tires and the rims are in good shape the tires are fair.The electrical system is fine the engine ran when i took it out.Low miles on speedo I have the header and four into one exhaust let me know if you need them seperately thanks. I HAVE NO TITLE FOR IT> I also have a nice ignition with matching gas cap thanks you can get a bonded title for it i don';t want to.
