    Not saying there is a problem with pawning bikes off on CL without a title, because there are lots of legitimate reasons for doing so, BUT... I found this one kinda funny:





    Nice and shiny roadworthy bike parked on a dark street corner, looking to see what he can get out of it (oh BTW, no title). Doh! Geee... that doesn't look suspicious at all! Haha! I wonder if Billy Bob knows that next door neighbor Johnny is trying to sell his bike on CL because he stole his parking spot. Just saying....

        It's a Shadow. Black bikes look better in the shade.

              LOL, it looks as if they dropped one car from a great height on to the other. You would have to be taking some serious meds to think this was a good idea to do.

                  At least it looks like a good job.

                    If so, I've been authorized to take bids on the Brooklyn Bridge.

                      I'm digging it. Bet it is the only RR truck out there.

                          "only mechanical issue is that one of the rods needs adjusted. It knocks slightly."

                          http://dayton.craigslist.org/mcy/4912352137.html



                          Ok. I've had this bike for 4 years and last year decided to completely customize it front to back. To avoid a long story, it did not and is not going to get done. The good news for you is that all you have to do is put it back together and I guarantee no other bike will look like it. The green picture is what it looked like the first time I changed it all around with new paint, handlebars, saddlebags, exhaust, and sissy bar. What I was going for this next time was a 70's cruiser style. So I bought fenders that wrap around more of the tire and had them cut and welded to fit. And a bigger tank that we modified the frame a little so it would fit. I still have all the original pieces if you'd like. You'd just need to weld the little posts back on for the old tank to sit on. No big deal. The only mechanical issue is that one of the rods needs adjusted. It knocks slightly. It has never gotten any worse in the 2 years I rode it though. The bike started up every time with no problems and has a 6 speed transmission which is very handy for highway riding. The tires only have one season on them. I also have a full dark brown leather hide because we were going to make custom saddlebags and re-wrap the seat. I paid $200 for it but will let it go for half that. The included pictures are a sort of mock up of what the fenders and seat would look like on it.

                          Brand new things I bought for it:
                          Bullet style turn signals
                          Tombstone taillight
                          Handlebar controls
                          Gear selector arm
                          Rear brake pedal
                          Header pipes
                          and honestly probably a couple other things I've forgotten by now

                          I always took very good care of this bike with oil changes and maintenance. I am willing to negotiate the price. Any questions at all feel free to ask. Thanks for looking.

                            Only asking $500? Underachiver. Almost makes it worthwhile to save it from Maron.

                              Why would you ride on an out of adjustment pushrod for 2 years then admit it?
