If only they came up for sale in the uk for this, would have a garage full of them.

$99, reserve not met, 1day 20hrs to go. Yeah, we never see anything like this in Oz. The last parts bike I saw here was a front end smashed bike, missing many parts and that sold for $800. That was 2006.

That bike looks quite complete, not much left to make it a runner.

Reserve wasn't met. I had set my bidder program to make a bid as I was at work, but apparently it didn't work as my bid was $500 and the bidding ended at $461. I wonder what the reserve was and if he'll re-list it.

Send a message to the seller with your 500 bid?

Got my reply. He's going to tear it down and part it out on ebay. I watch every day so maybe I can buy just the proper, carb, and airbox or at least the proper and the carb.

Really? I guess he thinks he'll make more money that way. Sheesh.

I ended up with the bike anyway for $410. It's missing some of the parts but the engine and rolling chassis are there.

Picked up the bike today. Motor feels tight. Still oil in the injector tank and coolant in the radiator. Can't wait until I get home to check it out further. Bike is sitting outside locked to the trailer in the motel parking lot. Looks like it might have usable fork tubes as well and the the frame and title are both good.
