It wasn't what I would have called "cozy" back then.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

That's the one where I know the original owners and it was sold in 45 minutes from when it was first posted. At that time, just a couple of months ago, or so, it was near perfect. That's the one you were waffling on.  |

They never could figure that out. I was quoted $10K on three separate occasions, but they never would even talk about actually selling it when I went to throw money on the table; thought they'd be able to sell it on eBay and make a killing from who used to own it. Needless to say, the bike sat there for a very long time in the back of their warehouse. |

Dude used exactly the same line as the other SC from a few days ago:
"This link will tell you all you need to know about how this design came about and what is special about this one-of-a-kind bike"
Whutta doosh.

The original owner is a B-rated celeb. |
