That rear brake line might as well have a sign on it:

"Touch me...bend me...break me!"

And "street fighter"? I think the stretched swingarm negates that possibility.

What's up with the brake line? I like the rusted chain and discs and whatever has been leaking down the side of the tranny on the left side.

"Fuel" (more like furniture varnish at this point) leaking from the gummed up carbs and the rotted tank.
 
Uh, do what?! :rolleyes:



1973 Honda CB750K2-Cafe Racer-Original Owner-2080 Orig Miles - $10500 (West Chester PA)

1973 Honda CB750K2 Cafe Racer. Ex-Honda motorcycle dealer selling personal motorcycle from my collection. I built this bike in 1973/74, in the Cafe Racer style, prior to the manufacturer's going in that direction. It is not stock as you can see from the picture, but close. The faring is from England (Paul Dunstall). The front fender is from Honda Motor Company's 750 race bike program back when they won Daytona in the early 70's. The rear fender is stock, just painted. The engine guard is from Honda but cut in half and powder coated and a tab added to mount Cibie driving lights. In 1977, I purchased from Honda: a 750F rear swing arm to get AHM's single disc brake; 750F front forks to get AHM's double front disc brakes; and a new stock motor which I then installed, an 810 kit done by engine builder Randy Carabelli. The wheels are Morris from Ohio and painted gold to match Honda's gold color. The rear shocks are new by Hagon. The bike is only used on a limited basis and has very few miles on the new motor. I recently went over the carburetors, master, brake cylinders, calipers, installed new rear shocks, and changed the fork oil. There is no item or detail that I have not addressed to ensure the motorcycle's proper operation. Original owner. 2080 original miles/570 miles on the motor since installation. For more information please email.

Honda xl250 i bought it has a oil leak but i put jb weld around the leak and it still leaks a little bit but it mostly stoped you can fix the oil leak though if the jb weld doesnt work i would just melt alluminum and like put melted alluminum around where its leaking. or you could take the engine off take the top mount off and put new sealent around the top mount which i dont know how to do and fix it that way. it takes a while to start but it runs.

I'm wondering why he replaced a four-year-old motor with 2k miles on it.

It seems like as a dealer, he had access to all these free or cheap parts and now wants to get paid for them. I think it's worth maybe a third what he's asking.
 
The early 69-70 sandcast can sell between 12000 and 20000 thousand. I bought a late 70 diecast that I had been seeing for a few years on some guys covered porch for 150 dollars complete with windscreen and saddle bags only problem is he had no sparkplugs in it, motor is locked up but for 150 cant go wrong. I actually gave it to my son with the understanding that he could do anything with it as long as it can be brought back to stock , no hacksaws. We have not done anything with it yet, though should be a fun project for us.Oh the K1 diecast can go for 5000 to 8000 thousand. These prices are for original near mint condition. I tell my son that it's not worth a dime if it's not for sale.

What, use all the missing punctuation marks as a sealant? :confused:

I think so. And that dent is hardly noticeable. :xsmilie_mrgreen:

And "valued at" $1500? KBB says $900, and that's without the tank and Sawzall encounters. I hope he gets what he deserves.

Its funny to me when you see an ad and the seller is taking a paragraph to tell you how easy it will be to fix the problems.

Also, whenever I see JBWeld mentioned in an ad its as if the seller is telling everyone to move on to the next ad.

But your notion that the missing punctuation is a good indication that the seller doesn't know much is correct and very funny.
