Notice the cardboard under the engine to protect the driveway.

I don't think that guy knows what a worthless turd he has there. Likely no title either. That wouldn't be worth picking up if it were FREE... I think he should have left it in the other barn, lol...

Aw c'mon, that thing should buff out rather nicely. Maybe another case of a misplaced decimal in the price.

The upper portion of the seat might be worth something - to some homeless hornets.

And any '82 or '83 11e owner would give his small finger for such easy battery access. I'd bid $10 - if the storage space was included.

I would not want to hit hard bumps and rough roads trying to grip that tank with my legs. That would hurt mightily.

Yeh that's a true nut cracker and the worn paint on the tank proves it 😭

[jabcb]

All that unsprung weight will make those nasty bumps worse.
Lights are probably crap. Those flat sided parts were a lot easier to make.


Sort of a Honda Grom meets Mad Max meets too much hp, except lots of riders have good fun with those Groms.

Damn thing is ugly. Jeez........uz.

[Spyder]

The price tag, of 18,000 is the most ridiculous part of it...

I was looking for the right words but you nailed it.

so I moved on and wondered why a "streetfighter" has no turn signals. Really- by definition, they should be a feature of a "streetfighter"...and what "streets" need or want tires like that? ok-I'm old and losing the plot as to the modern lingo but , "sick,man-that's sick" does work for me here.
