    They mention the words Realistic and Pricing twice in their add but seem to have put an extra zero on their own pricing!

    I was looking at that and thinking, you know, its not my taste, but I could appreciate that it wasn't a ropey piece of shit like the rest. I don't like the abbreviated end style and the forks are too big. But it is narrow and probably handles.

    Then did a double take at the price. Maybe its just there for a cheap reoccurring advert for the car yard.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    I think it's cool as fuck, but yeah probably overpriced by a factor of 5.

    The sad part is that in the US where it was built, and especially SoCal the Café racer movement has grown so much that people are paying over 100K and waiting up to 2 years to have a respectable custom builder design and build their bikes. It is ridiculous that one can throw together about couple of hundred leftover parts into something that looks like a café racer and people will happily pay for it.
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....

    The first thing i wondered was if they were selling it because no one can kick start it. 675cc with hot cam and pod filter. ?.... I suspect it might be a bitch to get going.

    I love that classified moto style personally. Do check their website they do great work.

    Theory: the boss loves it to bits and has no intention whatever of selling... it's just that the missus has decided to eliminate the competition. "Of course you come first sweetie, sure I'll put it up for sale"... in the meantime whack some ads for his business onto it too, kill two birds with one stone.

    I love the look of many of these custom bikes - but I always wonder what they'd look like once they get a plate and indicators. Things we need in the real world.
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
