I saw this bike in Motorcyclist (or Cycle World) recently and drooled all over it.  I dig the GT1000. And for just 30 large, it can be yours!

Not sure about the rodent hide seat cover, but the rest is cool.

Just not $25K+ cool....  Undecided

And for you guys who saw the word "Centerfold" in the title and quickly clicked on the link based on that, you're going to be a little disappointed.

Custom seat cover, Ohlins, and Rizoma bolt-ons. What am I missing? Why is it $25k?
It's really nice, just not $25k nice IMO.

Whoever ends up buying this bike might as well pay the owner to ride it for him too. Roll Eyes


Hey, man! Sweet bike!
-Thanks. I'm the shit!
So, what all have you done to it? what's the story behind it?
-Well, um... I paid a guy to detail it yesterday
Oh...

Yeah, I don't understand the price. There are some expensive bits on there... but one could but the stock bike, bits and labor and not hit 30k...

And for that price - the are still using the 2 pot stock brakes.. booo

Neat bike. I'd ride it. Wouldn't pay 2.5 times the cost of a GT1000 for it, but I do like it.

The seat is either suede or alcantra. The problem with the brakes is that the standard 4 piston gold lines won't fit, but the reservoirs and possibly master cylinders are upgraded. The rotors are upgraded, looks to be BrakeTech, Ohlins shocks and forks, Speedy Moto belt covers, misc powdercoated/ceramic coated bits, new lower triple (maybe upper too, can't tell). New red chain, new crank case breather and bar end mirrors.
That's just what I see. I like it.

Do I think it's worth 30k or even close to it? No, sorry...

That would have made the price to jump to $40K.  Grin
