And I made 3 excellent (for me) counter offers......  ;D

To be fair, your third offer was 50% higher than your first.  ;)

In all honesty, the pressure is off to sell it now as the bike I was hoping to put the money towards was snapped up by someone else.
Twas another big, fat V-Twin 'off-roader'.  :'(

Thanks Brett.

But I don't mind so much if it doesn't sell now.

We'll see....

Tony, give it a $20 resto. Dont repair or replace a thing Take the plastics and tank off and spray them gloss white, the frame ,seat,pipe and motor black , lose the proxy red fork rubbers and give it a wash. Stick it in the corner and it will look a million bucks.it won't be worth any less

I've actually looked at DC plastics, chain and sprockets, spokes, seat cover, black fork boots and repaint the frame.

It would look a million bucks for under 600.  ;D

Even better, I could make it look like my old one from 32 years ago.......

You are in a very enviable position. I don't own anything from my younger days. I say restore it the way it was in your youth.

Don't forget the worx safety seat and the fluted side covers Tony ... good for a 5 second-a-lap time reduction  ;D

On a serious note, if you were closer I'd be very interested in that bike.

A gazillion watchers on eBay, but no serious interest so I'm happy for it to stay with me for a while.
That said, if anyone decides they want it down the track, it will probably still be for sale.
While I've still got it, I'll continue to fix it up though.  8)

Hi again folks,
I've relisted this one on eBay again because another project is coming into the shed in the next week or so.  ::)
I've listed it at $990.00 but if anyone from here is keen, I can do better than that.
Just flick me a pm or email.
