    This one has been kicking around for a bit



    I give up!!
    .....I can no longer control this BEAST!!

    I've put waaaaay too much money into this Beast:

    1. "Rare" XV920 Chain (Yamaha)
    2. Set in a Kawasaki Frame
    3. Suzuki Rear End
    4. FZ1000 Front
    5. Rare "Race" Magnesium Rims
    6. Wrapped Corvette Exhaust
    7. V-Twin with Slider Carbs
    8. Customized Pistons
    9. Street Fighter Look
    10. New tires
    ....When she ran (I've only have about 30 miles on rebuild)....she ran (VERY Loud)...and (VERY fast).

    KEY: I just can't keep her going....I'm done!

    Will consider trade for newer V-Twin Buell

    When she was running, I was going to sell her for $15k

    Will consider serious offers

    Lots of (extra) parts and GP "vintage" racing plastics (no headlight)....race only!!

    No title. BOS and build (photo) docs to prove build....hundreds of photos!

    Sorry, I'm at work, so no photo posting

    BTW, in OR, need a title or you're screwed

        Wow! All that and no title too with the explanation that in Oregon if you need a title, you're screwed. I don't know how I can pass this up. Being the guy that I am, I'll give him a break and only charge $25 to haul it to the dump.

                    Might look alright when he's finished it, and makes it run, and gets it street legal, and makes it go around a corner.

                      So many ambitious projects that never get finished end up on CL and then something clicks in the sellers head. All these archaic Japanese parts must equal $15K together for I paid $1500 for all the materials from wrecked and non titled machines...

                      Frickin' crazy this guy think he can get a Buel for that rolling scrap yard.

                      AND I would never buy anything that is based of the very flawed and issue riddled Virago series...

                        That is a half dozen ifs right there.

                              1980 Custom Honda CB750 - $900 (new braunfels) < >









                              1980 Custom Honda CB750 paint color : blue fuel : gas




                              1980 Honda CB 750 custom rear fender and other parts. I had an ex boyfriend make this for me several years ago. Has a carburetor issue. Has been sitting for two years now waiting for him to come fix it. Probably needs a new battery too. Great project bike. spent over $1500 on parts.Really fast when it runs. 900 or best offer. need to sell.

                              I bet he "rebuilt" the brakes for her if he's an ex.

                                I chuckled on that one too!

                                Looks like he welded all that heavy, ugly steel to the frame too. That frame is ruined.
