    It promotes the corrosion of your exhaust anyway - stupid fucking fashion feature on a road bike. Or required if you design a stupid leg burning exhaust system.

    Or ride in jandels

    • Crappy cellphone pics: check
    • Bad decade for Harleys: check
    • Exposed battery, tatty paint, dicey chrome, visible rusty fastener or two: check
    • Photo of bike apparently stored long term in pile of rubbish: check
    • Admitting to major mechanical issue: check
    • Including photo to prove major mechanical issue: check


    As ads go, this is a trainwreck.

    Not quite as epic, but worth mentioning:

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...1097517075.htm

    I particularly like the optimism of mentioning that the purchaser might be inclined to get this bike ready for the track.

    No reg, wof, or papers.... no worries!

    It's a NOS fed drag bike. What part of that is not 'sportsbike' enough for you?

    The part where it doesn't go around corners very well and it probably needs a chute to stop it.

    So its not a sports bike. Its a drag bike....
