    But exhaust wrap means its fast, so right of the bat it adds 2K to the price
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....

    Either way it'd put the bike around 8-9k value... I mean it's a fucking FXR for gods sake!

    Pretty sure my bucket would give this one a good run and it's worth no way near that.

    Maybe the trailer is worth $8500...

    Sloan Frost apparently. He raced it once, that's got to be worth at least another 5k to have had his Superbike anus grace the seat.

    clearly some peeps round hear don't know the added value a wrapped pipe brings to the table....let me spell it out 4yas....wrap is an anagram of warp which means its faster than even full Impulse Power........meh, don't mention it, we all gotta learn stuff

    I really like the fuel tank on that for the proper street tracker I will likely not build.

    I am fairly sure the B'Rel class Bird of Prey pictured can go more than Warp 7. I have some literature on the subject - I'll get back to you.

    Looks more like Drew IMO - too short to be Sloan Frost I'd think.

    Get away you dirty dog, that's discussing.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Time to list the 100 bucket up then. Gotta be worth 12g baselining against the FXR. Heck maybe 8 grand for a quick sale.

    Have you got exhaust wrap on it? Go for 12.

    Don't forget to chuck it the combined years development of all the people who have worked on it at $90 an hour just so that the next person can pay for that too.

    I wouldn't know Drew if I passed him on the street, though I guess if he's a sidecar guy I'd just look for the oily knees?

    A bit of a facebook stalk confirms that's the dude that owns the bike, the on track pics are apparently Sloan.
    Doesn't change the fact that the guys smoking something to expect $$$ like that. No cunt is going to buy in to buckets at top dollar, they'll do what I did and start small then ramp it up as you start to get results.

    Drew looks a lot like that pic - but a tad more shifty around the eyes....

    Top dollar for a bucket is (according to me) $3-4k. What he is asking is just silly.
