What kills me is he expects money for it. I had to re-read it twice. I thought he was offering $15,500 to take the POS,-- not charging it. Wow, some people are truely delusional. Too much LSD in his sugar frosted weed flakes, Im guessing.

See kids, Dont do drugs!

When I was at Biketoberfest last year, it seemed like every other bike was lowered, stretched, and had some ridiculous back tire and paint job on it. Even Vespas weren't immune from this disease. I guess when the sharpest corner you have to take is a freeway on-ramp, you can get away with it....

Sure makes me want to just thinking about it again....

I got some respect for the amount of work that a painter/artist puts into a job like that, to bad it just looks horrible. I guess if that's what floats your boat more power to ya.

Why are they always in Floriday anyway??? Is it the heat? The lack of roads that have curves in them? Is it Disney?

I don't know. These bike fall into the ART category, all art isn't good. I am more into solid colors on motorcycles, but that is the great thing about this country, you can like what other dislike. I like different bikes but you would have to pay me a lot to ride on of those.

P.S. I don't think that busa is bad not sure what it is doing in this thread.

Props to the painter for having that much talent! Not really my style but it is definitely a one of a kind show-piece.

I like how he mentioned the FZ-1 had an R1 motor in it... thats how they come factory... hope he didnt shoe-horn an actual R1 motor in it...

the east coast show bike style is pretty wacky, and not in a good way.

leave em simple, and fast (in the corners especially!).

hahah I would LOVE it if he explained how he actually DID shoe-horn an R1 motor in, and how laborious the process is.....
Then you could comment on his cute faux-leather knapsack, sitting smack in the middle of his instrument cluster

What funny to me is everything on that bike is stock minus the paint. It even still has the original license plate holder on it. Why would you pay 10 grand for paint and not have anything else done to the bike. Why? Why? Why? Just give me the money instead.
