Vehicle Detail
REVISEMENT: The original pictures I took of this bike were beautiful. However, Ebay's picture system sucks, and they will probably come out grainy and blurry. I just want to stress that this bike IS nice, and the polish work doesnt even show like it should... So please check out the videos. I have two videos of this bike on youtube. Go to youtube and type suicycleschopshop in the search box. One video is a walkthrough, the other is a "down the road" vid. This bike is turn key, ready to ride it home. Fires right off (little cold blooded at first, but its fall time) and runs excellent. The tranny shifts smooth as silk. It has new clubman bars, mini speedo mounted off to the side by the motor, signals and front fender removed, custom seat, custom paint, Yoshimura silencer, and more. Engine side covers have been hand polished as well as the fronk fork lowers, rear outer hubs, and a few other parts. There is a quarter sized ding on one side of the tank. There are also some paint blemishes. Paint looks great as is, but you can see some dust spotting under the paint in a few spots when you get up close. Leave it as is, or get the tank and side covers repainted to your liking. The rear rim and spokes were installed new NOS to the original hub when the cafe conversion was done, and still look like new. I put about 30 miles on this bike since taking it in on trade (to ensure it is in safe operating condition... and have a little fun !), and the only thing I noticed is every once in a while the outer left carb would spit out a little gas when parked. Doesnt do it if you shut the gas off after use. My best guess is a quick float adjustment shoudl do the trick. You wont have to take the carbs off to do it, as you can just unscrew the bowl with the carbs still on the bike. I see no reason why this bike cant be ridden home by the winning bidder. But, if your inexperienced with a cafe bike (lower bars, no signals, etc) you may wish to trailer it home and get used to it in your own neighborhood. This bike is worth every dime of the opening bid and then some. So please, no low ball offers. In the spring this bike is worth double. Comes with a free and clear WI title. Buyer responsible for pickup/delivery and all costs involved. I recommend uship.com to get a quote. Generally, it runs between $250-$350 to get bikes delivered but cost may vary so no guarantees. Cash in person, certified bank check prefered. Id rather not use paypal, as they will take 3.5%. Please email with any questions. Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool.
