Love the sales pitch. With a new rear cowling that thing would be a cafe'd sex machine.

You are, as always, completely correct young man. Thought it'd look pretty good in your garage actually Paul.

I've ridden a few of them and in general I really like them as do a hell of a lot of others apparently as the price now is often more than they were new!!!! The 400's go better than they have a right to and I'd love to modify one. The only thing I dont like is the weird harold bit on the back of the tank. Cafe ing a bike that was cafe in the first place seems wrong so maybe a GB400 chopper would be the go? :sick:
Maybe not

Who parked that POS KTM in the background?
Also is the seat lubed or have the mechanics not had a ride yet?

Dunno what the fuck he was thinking, dirtying up my awesome auction....

Mechanics have been nowhere near it since October when the previous owner spent $1100 getting various shit sorted.

owned 3 of these things in the past. Good cheap, reliable machines. Wouldn't mind another one. Does the electric start still work? Does the cam chain rattle much?

Nah, cam chain sounds real good. I'll chuck the battery on charge and see if the button still works. Whoever wired in the awesome toggle switch for ignition didn't do it too well by the looks and the ignition's always on. Hence the flat as fuck battery.

Couple of days to go, someone's going to get a bargain here. I expect the bidding may fall well short of my $80K target.
Bugger.

This 'someone' is highly unlikely to get a bloody bargain if you keep promoting it you knob....
Not that I'll get it - some dickhead set up the auction to finish at 10:48am ffs... Dont you know most businesses block TM except lunchtime... sigh....

Sorry mate.

Hey! You know me, I'm a bike salesman. We're one step up from used car dealers and poloticians in the honesty polls. Can't see there being a problem there.......

I did chortle out loud!
Ummmmmm, the guy who has bid $750 is kidding right?
I mean, the bike goes well and was surprisingly easy to wheelie for the photo, but that kind of coin could get a proper bike!
