Vehicle Detail

----I POSTED THIS ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND THE BUYER GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND FOR 3 WEEKS BEFORE FAILING TO EVEN SEE THE BIKE. I made the mistake of not requiring a deposit so it was just a complete waste of my time---- THE GOOD:--The motor starts up and runs--The frame has had the rust removed and has been painted --new headlight brackets --new sealed battery--new clubman-style handlebars --head-pipes have been cleaned up--fresh paint on tank/side covers/wheels --motor has been painted with high-temp paint--fresh antifreeze--previous owner rebuilt the carb--unaltered frame Currently it is not able to be driven because of...THE BAD:--no lights--no mufflers--no gauges--no front brakes--no seat --no rear box--clutch cable needs work--front tire holds air but needs replaced Most of the bike has been cleaned up, but it still isn't finished. I have a rough seat pan (not attached) and a mock-up of what the rear box should look like (the box pictured is just made out of poster-board and tape). Comes with some old spare parts which are...THE UGLY:--throttle cables--overflow water tank--ignition switch--lots of other stuff (came with the bike when I bought it)also it comes with everything that "should" be on the bike, like: --ugly turn signals--tail light--gauges--megaphone exhaust--riginal seat pan/foam --motor protecting bars--rear wheel and tire (tire looks decent)and a bunch of other stuff that I kept, just in case someone wanted it. All of those parts are in rough shape (they were on the bike, which had been sitting outside for an unknown number of years). The title is in my name. This is most definitely a project bike, but with a little work, knowledge, and a little money, it would be a pretty cool ride. *****$200 deposit required within 48 hours of auction close and balance must be paid within 7 days***** ***Shipping is buyer's responsibility***
