          If the frame hadn't been cut back there by the seat, I would have considered it, but Steve's right, not worth the $500 asking. Maybe 200-250, but then again maybe someone is looking for a bike with that kinda cafe look.
          That's the thing about supply and demand, if someone wants it, then they'll pay for it.

            I think its kinda cool. If the tail end was a bit longer it would really look nice. The idea, although, far exceeds the bikes quality. Wouldn't buy it for $500.

              I see plenty of married folks out there and wonder who held the shotgun. (yeah, I know, folks wonder that when they see me to ) Point being, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you are in that small nitch market of folks who want that look, and do not have the skills to take it that far on your own, but can re-assemble an engine well, then this is the bike for you, and $500 ain't such a bad price. But for 95% of the population, get out the shotgun!
              Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

              When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
