    No way.

          Just that they could get a 2 year old sportster for what that guy was selling that bike and that maybe it was only worth 800-900 dollars.

            1983 suzuki gs1100l runs excellent looks very good surprisingly easy rider would even recommend for beginner no need to upgrade later because has all the power you will ever need extremely fast speedo goes to 140 and I'm sure would do it but never took to it myself 70 fast enough for me and that is at red line of second gear o to 70 in 2 seconds all gauges work including gear indicator which is nice to have gas gauge also works gets over 40mpg amazing gas milage for this size of bike rear tire like new front tire at least half tread life left no rotting going on great bike low price nothing wrong with it ready to ride purrs like a kitten roars like a lion 50000 actual miles but looks new excellent condition must have been garaged most of its life dual overhead cam 4 cylinder dual front dics brakes and disc rear brake email if interested

            0-70 in 2 seconds? That should stomp just about anything out there.

              Cafe Racer project bike. Runs and shifts very clean. It has a clear title,new clubman bars,new chrome pod filters,new headlight,kikker 2 into 1 exhuast(new would be what I askin for the bike by itself,if you could find one)
              It also comes with another tank(theyre well liked and hard to come by) Ive got to many projects,dont have the time and Im also moving soon so I cant take it all with me. It needs new tires,a new battery,brakes,petcock rebuild kit,and a little paint(about a weekends worth of work)and youd have a killer little bike. Ive got it price low to sell quick so Im firm on the price.Serious buyers only please.$300 cash (again this is a PROJECT)

                He had it posted for what he had in it...Let's see, Cost of the bike plus the CDI. That's $100 in labor plus the $80 part. So it was listed for, using his 6th grade mathematical skills.....$175

                  Those two GS 300 guys should get together and sell parts to each other or something.

                              I'd trade in a minute! Gotta be a GOOD one, though...

                              Here's a fine piece of welded scrap, freshly hauled from a shed that he will trade for a GOOD 4 wheeler!!
                              Nuthin' a few thousand hours of wrenchwork wouldn't transform into... well... a heap of dangerous scrap.

                                The seats arent bolted down but all it needs is a wheel cylinder to be driveable!!! I would think a seat thats bolted down so your azz doesnt get thrown out would be a very key essential as well...It just boggles the mind what some people try to sell once they realise they are way in over their heads and dont have the technical skills to have even started the damn thing in the beginning!!!

                                I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
