Show bike.
Never meant to be ridden.
Doesn't have to have good ergonomic or road manners, just look outrageous.

Question Anson, Why were you looking at it? 

You know me well enough to know its not for me, but as they say, "No such thing as bad publicity".   The owner thanks you i'm sure.

I was watching Mecum last night on DiscoveryHD an I saw that roll through. I saw the price and thought my Lord who the..... had to share. They had a guy push it through, looked above average height. Watching him try to see around the tank was ridiculous.  Tongue

Yeah I saw that as well. I think the highest bid was $17,000, but I didn't see if it actually sold or if it was held back due to a reserve price.

You know

if they moved/reshaped the tank so it was underneath the backbone in that void space

rounded up those brakelines with some kind of tie/fastener

and

tightened up the rake to about 26 degrees

it wouldn't look too bad

I sat on one, it's a beast. Would take some getting used to, the front tire seems like it's 10ft away.  Shocked
