Check out the tires on this

A beautiful bike, but check out the tires, red tires with white walls! Haven't seen those before, imagine what they could do for a rat bike.

Question guys, will he find a buyer at that price? Nice bike but I wouldn't shell out $6999, even less $9999 for it.

someday, somewhere, maybe ... either its got to be THE exact bike someone is wanting and is able to pay for it, or its somebody with money to burn that likes having old bikes to brag about imo ... but at that price i doubt it under ebays conditions (bought off the net looking at pics).

i know a local guy that has flown to estate auctions (with his restoration guy) to buy an old Nash/Rambler wagon in various ads hes saw or was told about. and i know he flew to a few places to find the THE car, price didnt matter as long as it was what he was looking for in the conditions he could accept.

Well, first thing would be to take that stupid tank off and then spraypaint it all black.
