OH, NOW I remember... Such a "great" bike sooooo fun to ride around town.
"Wanted something fun to ride on short trips" or something like that.
Full circle, now going to someone who will either restore it or roll it up in a knot.

I find it amusing that so many of the ads say "turns heads wherever it goes" or something to that effect.
Problem is, they never say which way the heads are turning.

If he would have only taken care of the usual things on that bike (which he said he paid almost nothing for), he could have easily sold it for $1,800 with minimal investment. Cosmetically, it was pretty much perfect.
Here's the funny thing about these abominations that people call "bobbers". The intelligence level of the person who might actually want to buy one precludes their ability to generate the revenue required to pay cash for a bike if it costs more than a few hundred dollars.
In other words, there is no market for these things, none. Idiots see them listed on Craigslist like this, and assume that they actually bring the prices they're listed at. I've watched several ebay auctions for these things, they never bring more than $1,100 or so, and most don't make reserve at that price.
I'm done mincing words anymore, these bobber guys are just f***ing morons.sigpic

Free speech is the foundation of an open society. Each time a society bans a word or phrase it deems “offensive”, it chips away at that very foundation upon which it was built.

Different strokes for different folks. There are cool bobbers out there. But craigslist isn't where you will find them.
