Well it was raining today but that never stops me from breaking out the bike and trailer and heading down to the local flea market to see what new stuff they got. Saw this and thought it was cute so I asked and they said $20, seeing it has ACS "Z" mags on it I thought the rims would be worth twice that if I decided to part it. So another one in the ever piling shed.....lol.

And just to give you an idea of how bad I got it here's the shed as it is now and I'm getting 6 more delivered tomorrow!

Well since I just paid $20 I think I'll hold off on taking $10. If it doesn't sell for at least $50 I'll take the rims off of it and throw on some spoke wheels, probably rat it out and keep it as a muscle bike or give it to a neighborhood kid. I figure the rims, tires, and tubes are worth the $20.
 
I think it's awesome and you should ask $1,000.00

That's the fastest looking pedal bike I have ever seen. For a second there, I thought it was a real Ninja.

Yeah I kinda did a double take when i first saw it, I was looking at it earlier and thought it'd be sweet to put a bike engine kit on it and make it functional as a motorbike, but the heat would probably ruin the plastic. :cry: Cool thought anyway.
 
Please clean up the coat hangers outside your shed that keep drawing my attention to the ground in every one of your photos. Thank you. :p
 
It does have some real kookie possibilities. It would be a real one of a kind.
The wheels are pretty cool.

yeah the more I look at it the more i see some cool parts that would be great for other builds but also seeing one col bike to build up. I noticed the stem is super long like almost a foot long! The seat is cool, the wheels are cool, but the bike is cool. I been having visions of flat black with red and white pinstripe, maybe trim the plastic and install an engine kit, some red ninja decals, make the lights functional, some painted spoke wheels with whitewall tires. Just some cool thoughts.

I never even noticed them

Haha, I noticed them the first time I saw a photo of your cruiser in that same spot.

I try to put them in that spot because the shed and tree block the sun so i can get a clean shot that's not white-ed out. My cam sucks. And I have random bits and pieces, cars, trucks, motorcycles, golf carts, mopeds, junk, exc. go in and out of my yard on a regular basis. I'm always running here and there, picking this up, dropping that off, selling this, buying that, flipping for profit, hoarding, collecting..... :mrgreen: .
 
A nice satin black with red stripes and white pins. Sort of a mix between the A Team van,Knight Rider and the Death mobile from Animal House.
Those new Rat Rod Bike decal ideas you were kicking around would be perfect for this thing.
Maybe this should be your entry into next years build off. I bet you'll be the only cat building one of these.

Now that's an idea! It'd certainly be the only one like it.

Well I got rid of the motobike today, A friend's kid is getting into helping his uncle build his motorcycle and his bike had seen way better days so I gave him this one. It is amazing to see a kid's face light up and get excited about a bike! He asked a million questions about my bike and saw my RRB stickers and asked about it so of coarse I told all about the site and the bikes that we build, He's hooked! His mom said she'd help him set up an account and let him look around.

The bug spreads........... :mrgreen:
 
best $20 you ever spent! you have made a very positive impression on that kid, and the world will be slightly better forever! :D
