It wasn't what I would have called "cozy" back then.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Does that bike have a history here?

That's the one where I know the original owners and it was sold in 45 minutes from when it was first posted. At that time, just a couple of months ago, or so, it was near perfect. That's the one you were waffling on.   [laugh] [laugh]

i wonder why he is selling it so soon?
maybe another one of those guys that likes the idea of riding a duc but after the novelty wears off he realized he is more of a harley kind of guy
it is so much easier to get forgiveness then it will ever be to get permission.

Seems kinda pricey, how much were they asking for it then?...

You did so much better with the one you bought that this is totally laughable.

They never could figure that out. I was quoted $10K on three separate occasions, but they never would even talk about actually selling it when I went to throw money on the table; thought they'd be able to sell it on eBay and make a killing from who used to own it.   [laugh]

Needless to say, the bike sat there for a very long time in the back of their warehouse.

Dude used exactly the same line as the other SC from a few days ago:

"This link will tell you all you need to know about how this design came about and what is special about this one-of-a-kind bike"

Whutta doosh.

So what's supposed to be so special about this particular motorbike?

The original owner is a B-rated celeb.
