    John is in an anonymous city with an Alamo (N29.519227,W-98.678980)

    Go ahead, click on the bikes - you know you want to...the electrons are ready.

    That guy better be selling eight parts bikes with it to justify the asking price. Honestly, I don't even think it's that attractive of a cafe bike. One of the best one's that made my jaw drop lately was the one I think Marty posted of the XV-whatever it was. Orange in-color or chrome I think? Absolutely awesome! This one posted above does not provide the same feeling.

      About $8,000 more than I would pay. I would have a least put the 160 speedo back on it.

            This is what a ten thousand dollar cafe racer looks like. It's also built by someone with a reputation.

                  That CBX is one bad mo-fo! Lol.

                  I almost crapped reading Max's post. I don't think you can disguise the F-Word using an "F", lol.

                    Marco,
                    You aren't going to touch these bikes for ten large. In the case of the Vincent, $10K might buy an engine, but I expect maybe it won't.

                          At least the tail light us out in the open and could potentially be seen....

                            That XS1100 is not in the $10,000 league. It has a long way to go.
