What The Actual Fuck ?

I may put a Harley badge on my Ducati - they tried to buy Ducati so it must be valid.

LOL no one's going to pay top dollar for your 10 year old, crashed-to-fuck bike.

Only $200 to spray the tank.
Yeah. Not sure which way to go with that, but I think for mates rates you might get a rattlecan job with no preparation at all (yep, stand back, dont bother taking it off the bike) plus a left hook for being so cheeky.

We're struggling to find a (decent) painter that'll do a tank for less than a grand.

I used to get the work cars repaired and after a while my guess at what the quote would be was usually pretty close . The minimum if they had to open a tin of paint was $300 - and that was five years ago.
So $200 is a definite rattle can job.

It looks like shit with the tank still red.

Sure he gets comments ....... presumably not positive.

I'd assume the first edition is the most collectible, however this looks very tidy and probably will fetch good money - it has not hit reserve yet at $14k

I remember when you struggled to give them away!

Really nice MV but it goes to show these 'Specials' are not always good investments by any means. Paid $75k - done F-all kms and will take $25k. Puts the investment purchase in line with a Orange County Chopper.

Comments are interesting.

Talking of losses - I occasionally wander through the local Masareti dealership. Dreaming of the big Lotto win.

You can pick up a couple year old Masareti with bugger all kms for a fraction of the new car price.

Ignoring the tyres it's pretty cool. Thinking the asking price is around the original purchase price (I paid $4k for a Kawa 750 new in 1982).

In the early 80's I almost purchased a green one of these with the loudest 4-1, flat bars and rear-sets. It looked the business and went like hell. Kind of regret not buying it.

Fuck me are they really $21 grand now? https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/mot...c4b098c3157d08

I have always, and continue to hate with a passion the curved cut-outs on the front disks. I'd have to change them out.

Yeah I've been watching that. I'll own it if I win Lotto tonight.
