That's up by Indian Lake. Wish I had $2000!

It's also listed on E-GAY...seeing the amount of rust on the frame, I wouldn't even consider it! The engine has probably suffered along with the frame! The E-GAY add shows better images!

Reminded me of Reds at 1st sight (please dont take offense mr redtwiz!)
plus looks like a white 750 next to it in one of the pics!

Then I realized it was not even close :no:
The Mutt is way nicer (and assembled)

But
I would give the dude 500bux cash!
Or 550 and I get to kick him in the balls, whatever works...:grin:

i'd go for the 550 and the nut shot because it would be funny...

Caught my attention since it's in my area - but damn, did this guy leave that thing sit outside to rot in the rain??!!

I would say for 2K I can build on to my bike whatever that bike has that mine doesnt have and actually ride mine down the road. Kinda cool direction started with that rusty thing though.

I think he dunked it in salt water before he let it sit outside! It looks like an upstate NY winter-rat after 3 or 4 years of harsh winters and no car washes!

Man I hadn't seen the pics on the ebay. That poor bike!

I emailed him to see if he would sell me the tank and seat and he declined.

that sprocket looks like a rusted up saw blade...

no offense taken JayT:grin: I think its more surface rust then anything cause the metal is still smooth and not like a moon craters. I agree with woodytick about sawblade rear sprocket. I guess you could call the bike "jigsaw".:heh_heh:

You could strip it naked and sandblast it and start over - but for that price???
Then you have to wonder about the engine! The bike has definitely been sitting out!

ya he would be better off trying to part it out.. Id buy those wheels and the tank for sure.
