The bike in that video is for sale for $1000? Unless there is something to it that i missed i'd offer about $300.I imagine it needs tires and the wheels are mismatched.Though that rear wheel looks like a lester mag which is somewhat valuable.It has long forks on it,but the neck doesn't appear to be raked.To be advertised as a chopper,to me,is sort of annoying.!0 over tubes does not make it a chopper,you know what i mean?The whole thing is a rust ball,which is not exactly a bad thing.Rusty rat rods can be a cool thing if thats what you dig.I'm assuming it also needs a battery.
New tires,mounted and balanced $200
new battery-cheapo-                $ 40
Matching wheel???-                  $ 50
Redo brakes???-                      $150
New chain-                             $ 60
Replace airbox?????              +______
                                             $500
So youre looking at dumping another $500 at least just to get up and riding.Once you've sorted out the leaky seals,bad bearings,rusty tank?...you'll have a good bit more in it.Yeah,I'd give 3 for it as is.Unless I could really inspect some particular parts of it.
