Pretty slick but too many zero's :shock:

I'm guessing they meant $1800, which is still too high by about $1200 according to the "normal" prices I see.

Lansing, MI CL. Pretty interesting headlight if nothing else. $75 and the hour drive kind of kills my interest but still....

Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

Well I had a funny experience today, a guy e-mails about the tall bike I had listed on Craigslist and says he wanted to come look at it. He does, has me air up the tires, takes a short test ride, says he likes it, takes a picture of it, and says he's going to pass :? ...after driving 50 miles one way to see it in a FULL SIZE VAN! It probably cost him more in fuel than I was asking for the bike. :roll:

Why not just ask for better pictures?

^^^ I'm thinking he may want to build his own and didn't know what it would be like to ride. Took extra pictures for inspiration. Possible?

I thought that too but why not just buy mine that's already built? I mean 100 mile round trip in a full size van just to ride a bike and go home empty? I got another guy lined up to buy it on Sunday so I don't care either way just thought it was weird.

Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

I think finally the masses are steering away from the "chopper," crowd, look, vibe and feel. There have been so many wonderfull spokesmen for "chopperdum," lately no wonder people think the bikes are stoopid, or bicycles for that matter.
Jesse James, screwed a skank that was as hot as his wife.....
The OCC crew just hates their own family, not good for business!
I am just thankfull I got a bad dose of, "bikers," as a youth and never became a clubber, 1% on a bicycle is tough to maintain!
So buy while they are cheap!

Yeah, don't even LOOK at the stem as if you want to fix it! haha

I love this part " Look at the rims!! NO RUST." Yeah, it's because they're aluminum! :roll:

I'm more concerned that the 'mechanic' left the front wheel all skewed in the fork. :roll:

That is high, especially with a bent fork, but this could be more about the sum of all it's parts:

-Headbadge = $
-rack = $
-skirts = $$
-skiptooth stuff = $$
-grips = $
-long spring saddle = $
-dogleg crank = $

I'm just surprised he's not asking $250.
