    I'll bet a pint on it it is NOT a Deus build. Maybe the former owner sold it to the current one for a high price claiming it was a Deus build?

    Quite impressed that they have managed to shoe that tyre on the rear rim!

    Dude, I was out playing in the snow. The tank is covered in Heineken caps, but in this shot I can see where ya might mistake it for an Elvis bike.

    I've been wondering the same thing, the SR's seem to be a popular thing for cafe racer/bobber abominations.

    Anyway, unmolested you wouldn't get $5800 for a SR400, so why would you think making it uglier is going to increase the price?

    What?

    This is the ugliest POS I have seen in awhile.
    Fifty yards of pipe wrap and the muffler pointing straight up?

    Also what is this "air line" that he had cleaned?
    Is it part of the powerband?
    I came in here tonight to post this particular bike. I propose we start a givealittle page, so we can buy it and turn it back into a proper motorbike, not some hipster douchenozzle's idea of a motorbike he had seen in a pot-haze after his fucking beard-oil caught fire and he realised his TINY FUCKING TWIGGY LEG could not kickstart the thing even though the airline was defective and it only had 3:! compression

    FUCK

    edit: i have had some wine and some beer so I have aksed some questions:

    I am concerned that cleaning the airline may have detirmentally affected the powerband. Does the motorcycle run well, after that, particularly given the egregious and large exhaust pipe?

    Are the tyres made of actual beasts, or synthetic?

    Have a look at the motor esp the top end I don't think its Xr200 at all, maybe TLR the cylinder fining kind of looks too big so the cam cover is the wrong shape as well, To be a Xr200
    Edit it could be a ATC200X top end I have never seen one but they are supposed to have larger fins
    that last pic has a RLT250 engine
    My 2c

    he's still dreaming........
