Woo-Hoo! "Hideous eBay Bike Friday!"
« on: July 15, 2005, 02:17:07 PM »
Ok, I read this guys description of his "cb 750 Hot Loud Sexy!" and I can sympathize with his health issue, however this pic with him on board this "cb 750 Hot Loud Sexy!" bike with his Velcro shoes parked just yonder passed the chicken coop makes it an instant "Hideous eBay Bike Friday!" nominee.

The quote "BEWARE  ! If your old lady is the jealous type,you probably shouldnt buy this bike,as it attracts the ladies wherever it goes!! " pretty much sums it up.

Arhhh.  But see here.  Grasshopper knows not of what makes the world go blurgh.  The creator of this back street hero is surely the master of all that is hideous on eBay.
Sit down, hold on tight, have your bucket ready and peek through shielding fingers, as I pesent to you...

Isn't that a still from the episode of Hill St Blues where Sipowitz infiltrates a bike gang?

Butte, Montana...wasn't Evel Kneivel from there?  Come to think of it...this guy kinda looks like him.  A relation perhaps? 
His shipper sure had a close call when he was born and got named.

"peek through shielding fingers"

-"think the shielding should have been a bit more effective Mr. Scott".

I want to know how the dude with the blue bike mounted an earlier K disc on a comstar wheel? Hmmnn, maybe I don't! Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Probably the same way he fit the drum brake on the rear. I'm guessin' they're from a 77-78 Hondamatic.
Give me..a frame to build a bike on, and my imagination will build upon that frame

"if your old lady is the jealous type you should get this bike, as it attracts the ladies...."

yeah, I'm all hot and bothered right now, having just seen a *photo* of that bike. I'm sure he's getting lots of action.

I don't think his ladies are attracted to him or the bike.  It's how they make a living.

The last one reminds me of Roaddog.  Looks like it's built sturdy enough (who else noticed the overload springs on the front fork where you'd normally have boots?), but do you think it really cares where the front wheel is pointed when there's anything more than a light dew on the road?  It's still not quite as ugly as Roaddog, but it beats most anything else.

I've seen this bike around (I live near the owner...or my SO does in any case...).  It is even more hideous
in person...like a K/Q with combined sissy bar.

Ick.

But, it is a stocker otherwise, so, returning it to normal would not be an issue...:)  But, I don't need
another bike in the stable right now...;)
