OK so I'm still hunting for some parts for the kids 185 twinstar and I see this!

Apparently sand cast 750s are cheap compared to this build

I have a feelling he's just fishing for offers.

looks a bit like the tank I threw out last year,
except mine didn't have a bottom

Hmmm. When that is more than a whole bike would cost you've got to assume he is being a little optimistic. Perhaps the decimal point is in the wrong place?

[Uncle Ernie]

That is one gorgeous tank !
I wonder if that would fit a 400...

[edbikerii]

I think it must be a sandcast.

It's not a regular auction.  He has it listed for "Best Offer" or the $700 Buy it Now option, probably keeping his fingers crossed for that one sucker who really, really wants it, but I have a feeling he'll accept way less than that in the end.  That is if he hasn't scared away most potential buyers with that ridiculous buy it now price.

Don't get me wrong. It's nice and I do need one...............

Buy it Derek and tell her it's her birthday and Christmas present for the next 5 years.
