    This build might have made a little kid cry... notice the digger used as an engine stand?

    Technical query. Can you actually call it a "build" if he mostly just took stuff off and chucked it away?

    Yeah that tank is never going to look anything but bad with the rest of the bodywork removed.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    Oh here you go. This was quite a popular conversion in its day and would likely be a serious race bike in some crazy universe.

    And here's another seriously confused bike with a wacko price tag.

    I don't think people realise that std bikes gain the big bucks. This, well this. . . I'll let you decide.

    It'll look better once someone crashes it, which is pretty fucking likely, given the mirror shine on the tires.

    As a custom I like it.

    Not a fan of the gloss on that front tyre!

    Lots of work and coin in that.

    What's it worth? Who knows, but I suspect after dropping your coin a thousand kms down the road the hardtail and unified braking will wear thin.

    Bleerg I had to look again to answer the question when responding to Allan. My premise was I doubt many would actually ride a thousand Ks on that shifter before realising it's not actually viable as a motorcycle.

    And oh look. Less than a thousand Ks.

    Waste of resources.

    Well that certainly doesn't belong on this thread. I wouldn't have put a buy now price.
    It needs the right bidders to know that's it's there at the same time.
    I would buy that right now, except that my garage is already full with nine bikes and the Shelby. Only problem is that I am not sure if anyone would actually ride it (due to the low km) which would be a shame.

    Well the answer is clear Si. There'd surely be room for another 4-5 bikes in the space that takes up

    Foot shift for the gears is there - I am wondering if the clutch is a left grip twist. Pretty sure Exile motorcycles did something like that to keep the controls 'clean'.

    Yep - here it is. http://www.exilecycles.com/index.php/parts/handlebars

    $250 USD

    NOT a suicide clutch at all. Which makes me wonder about the sellers knowledge .....
