Optimistic sellers

[HenryDorsetCase]

Fuck I hate people who name thier bikes human names, and then refer to them as such as if we care.
Then spelling is optional

you and me both. In fact I refuse to refer to machinery with a human pronouns. They are machines, they're "it" not "she" or "he".

The only exception being the Starship Enterprise.

While I don't name every piece of equipment I use.
There are a few who most definitely have a female personality. They can tell you what's wrong but often in a way to keep you guessing.

Next one, ideal for a collector. - a collector of what?!??

I can't get it going for some reason. Yeah like the reason is it's fucked and put itself out of its own misery. World's heaviest trials bike.

I daren't look too close, the colour of that tank and the fittings on the fork caps look horribly familiar...

Speaking of things cafe racer, check the astonishing number of bids and watchers on this one:

By definition he's not an optimistic seller but it's a pretty good gauge of how much interest there is in this stuff at the moment.

I like everything except the pipes. Nice bike.

Same. Other than the exhaust I don't mind that. At least the seat's the right colour

Agree. He's been trying to sell it for $7500 for a wee while but he saw sense, dropped the thing to start = reserve and is letting it go.

I reckon if you could own it for at or around $5k you would be doing well.

[Voltaire]

750/4

$1500 no reserve

Be quick HDC

All the hard work done.

That bobber has potential at the start price.

Needs a bit to complete.

Jockey shift on the right side? Nar - there is a reason they run them on the left.


I'll be interested in what it goes for.

Fuck Me.... Where did I put my axe?

[WALRUS]

Gee whiz, it sure is a good thing that 70's Hondas aren't in any way desirable or collectable.. Fucking hell

That's HOONDA to you sir!

Clearly the frayed stitching adds some authenticity

[Laava]

I will make a bold statement and declare that this motor is running on a minimum of 2 cyls. Sounds like a cb200

I reckon that front end would be a straight bolt up to mine

[WALRUS]

Doesn't sound very happy at all

[pritch]

Haha PBR, the Lion Red of America

Ahh but nobody waxes lyrical about Lion Red.

Gonna drive up by the lake
Put my ass in an arm chair, toes in the clay
Not a worry in the world a PBR on the way
Life is good today, life is good today.
