hopefully the seller isn't wise to us... 

[trenchgrinder750]

didn't happen today.  played a crappy game of phone tag.  tomorrow will be the day.  still have the gopro.

one thing is for sure, its not him.

I say you still get some video of yourself (dressed the part) riding it like a raped ape.

definitely can't dress the part.  there can only be ONE.

They say imitation is the best form of flattery, though!

Ok. Video to come tomorrow, I don't have the bigger card for the mini card.  Seller did the build. Nice guy. This is the first 350 I've  been on. Very fun bike that is tuned very well.  Seat is not comfortable at all. I'll leave this right here.

I'm thinking about buying it.

Well it has oil pressure

You can call it WILDE THANG........
Begs the question...did J Wilde see this???... And copy it ?

[SOHC4 Cafe Racer Fan]

This definitely looks like it's the JW bike down to the hose clamps on the exhaust wrap. Maybe he sold it back to his builder.

[754]

I am thinking that JW saw this and simply copied it..

[RAFster122s]

Or maybe you guys are thinking outside the box enough... Maybe the WildePoseur never owned a 350 and just stole photos from some other place...!!!!
Truly a headcase...that one is...

 If you do, PLEASE re-wrap the pipes properly.
 Did the seller say anything about the P.O. or how it came into his possession? Was it really given to him?

[evanphi]

We need more details!

[DaveBarbier]

MY idea is to keep it exactly as it is. So we all remember the hilarity that ensued. It can be our little inside joke.

the seller did build the bike for JW.  and JW did GIVE it to him.  i'm trying to make it work out to buy the bike. but the joys of living in new York I share a 6x20 garage with 4 bikes in it already. if I can make it work i will definitely re wrap those pipes.

80mph in 2nd gear fun?!!!

Well, if JW gave the bike to him, then the Sell price should be lower.

Maybe the bike was repossessed for non-payment?!

Great minds think alike, that is what I thought maybe also.

[DaveBarbier]

Well, if JW gave the bike to him, then the Sell price should be lower. It's all profit to him. And remind him, we paid the price for enduring his antics for far too long. So he sort of owes you/us.

I like this. When I go into Brooklyn I expect to be able to ride my portion of the bike. Hopefully that's the seat and not the exhaust.

Maybe you can get it for a couple hundred -- or a portion of JW's unpaid repair bill.

Maybe you can get it for a couple hundred Instagram likes!

FTFY

hey trenchie, you're getting distracted: where's that video??

If the seller was JW, definitely!

The Chronicles of Wilde.

And that seat needs to be leopard print. 

[riverfever]

And even though hose clamps could be removed and safety wire installed in mere minutes...upholstery had best be at the top of the list.

[jaguar]

Wilde probably "gave" the bike to the builder for payment.....

Works Engineering used to be like MECA in the NYCVinMoto world.  Really great guys and mechanics.  Unsure if that is still true.  For a while they thought that they would loose the space.  Even stopped doing the HUGE block parties in the summer.

The whole hipster bike scene is kinda dead in NYC and other places that matter.
Most have moved onto other band wagons.

It appears the Wilde One is on the Yahoo Honda C70 group...no grandstanding there...yet...

Yes you can get one. It's not that bad. Figure on spending a couple of hours at a couple of different agencies. Mine was, if memory serves me correctly, $370.00 after all was said and done. And it IS a bonded title. Which means it is sellable or transferable during the "probationary" period. After a waiting period of 3 years then you can obtain a clear "blue" title. Which city do you live in?

I bought one in Arkansas and have the same issue. Here you have to get a bonded title which is very expensive or more than the bike is worth. I did run an ACIC and NCIC report and found the vehicle had never been titled. I tried reaching out to Honda Corp. but they will not reissue a title of origin. So decided to see if it was worth fixing and then trying to title once on the road. It had sat in the garage for a year and I spent a few hundred on parts. Anyway bonded title is the way you need to go I believe.
