                             Dang I would but timing couldn't be worse,
            Posted in other places (family/friends) hoping somebody I know will buy.

                    Any action on this bike yet or have you left it just here for now.

Thanks Piute. There's a guy who is supposed to drop off a deposit first of next week. He's pretty worked up over the bike so I think he may actually come through. He has this exact frame with a Pan head in it thats giving him trouble so he wants this to ride while he sorts out the other. He liked his GME plunger so much that he wanted anotherIt actually is a good riding bike.

[shinyribs]

Nope!  Not considering it went for $3800 LOL

[TOOLS1]

Now aren't you glad you spoke to someone about pricing.
TOOLS

[shinyribs]

The answer to that would be veryveryveryveryvery yes!

And its for the better really. The Fella that bought it was way more excited about.it than I ever was. It was a fun bike, but I never fell in love with it. This guy is super happy. It went to a good home.

From the old Rally's commercials:

"Cha-CHING!"

Glad you got some good dollars from the sale.  Next project, please.

I have alot of ideas for ''next project'' in my mind right now. I never imagined there was a good market for stuff like this around my area. There were 3 guys wanting this bike. They were all waiting on tax refunds and the first to show with cash got it. It's got thinking about a little side business. Nobody around here builds anything,but apparently they're willing to pay for turn key bikes I think I see a business opportunity...just gotta crunch some numbers.

Goodby old blue beauty. Next

Is it not a good feeling when  you sell a bike, car or truck like this to some one you think will take care of it?

[shinyribs]

Exactly Shultz. This guy who bought this thing is real happy to have it and thats awesome IMO. Plus,since it's still local I might be able to buy it back someday. That's a good feeling,too.

[TOOLS1]

I have a guy coming in the morning to look at my KZ 750 (he seems really interested in it). If only he had came when you had offered ol'blue to me a few weeks' ago.
