Really, you only want $9,000 for it?????????

[XSokieSPECIAL]

Ok......you REALLY DIDN'T need to bring REALITY into this....

[Guy_b_g]

yeah...no harm in dreamin'....lol (yeah Kat, we're all dogs..lol)

Sort of sounds like a Honda that takes three acres to turn around...

The bike would be a bunch cheaper to maintain than the lady.

I love the fact that he included the last two shots to show that there really was just a bike for sale, but for that price I'd want a 10 year lease on the whole package At least one of them might last that long...

and she'd probably be a better ride.

[XSokieSPECIAL]

Yea.....but she would make a lot of noise when you got tired of her and parked out behind the garage.

I think restoration would be nearly impossible after that.

[b.walker5]

Thats when you trade up to a later model....

[Montreux_Blue]

He dropped the price in case anyone is interested in a steal.....

Ya know…

First is the “inspiration” in your mind of what a bad to the bone idea you get
of a “super cool motorcicle”
You spend some real bucks on questionable parts
Then spend days which turn into weeks then months on it
A little disillusionment sets in that it may never get done
And finally get it to the point that it can sorta be ridden
You go for a short ride and discover what a POS it turned out to be
So now you try to sell it knowing that even if it had a hardly motor it wouldn’t be worth squat
So you hype it up, posed with what you think is a hottie on it and it’s on craigslist
Crossed fingers hoping that WC Fields knew what he was talking about when he said:
“There’s one born every day”

Of course, maybe he’s only the author of an add and WC was right and he was a sucker enough to buy it for an unholy sum and just hopes that he’s not the only one out there

BTW, actually had a “Harley dude” tell me he wanted to buy my Merriam SF.
I told him I had another, same model and year that I’d let him have at a real reasonable price. He says NO I want that one. I says OK, $10,000.00…
I did offer him a chance to own it for free. A race from the Derby to the Florence for pinks… he walked away

[XSokieSPECIAL]

You talking about the bike or the girl?.............LOL........

[latexeses]

Looks like he pulled the add off CL. That or got laughed off. Too bad.

I think MRO hit pretty close to the mark.

He re-posted it for $6,000..... maybe if they keep laughing he will eventually get to a more reasonable price...

I posted the link up a couple posts but here is the new one again.

Hope springs eternal.

I'm just thinking red-neck HD wanna be who already has the proper IQ, but not the proper bike......
The flat black is nice in that it will hide almost anything in a photo.

Could be I was just a little harsh....

Sorry dude. To each their own.
