No they are not junk. They are a historical development in the modern bikes history. Im saying the one this guy was selling was junk. It was not running and in pieces. Not junk but way overpriced at 1500. IMO

ok...cool. I thought that's what you meant. I just personally think they are really cool...I like all the smokers.

Too bad there was never a 4 cyl. smoker.

I sort of like the bike (sounds funny though...), but the video is just plain weird. First off, the cameraman's got to go. One time he was supposed to video the bike speeding by, but all I saw was a grassy hill. Not long after that he's focusing on a cow. Then the rider seems to be easily impressed with his own riding skills (going around in a circle turn-about, "accelerating" past the car). The way the rider kicks out the rear wheel stand near the end of the clip... I thought for sure the bike was going to end up on its side (it's only a matter of time though...).

I think those guys should reshoot.

If you don't like what's been posted in the last 169-170 pages, I think you may be out of luck. $:-\$

ffjmoore,
That bike (red one right?) would pop up every month or so. It seemed the price never changed. I think his wife wanted him to get rid of it, so to appease her he would list it.

I see people posting the same bike over and over for the same price. Some of them are nice too, but just a tad bit pricey. I guest if you're not hurting for money, it's okay to hold out for the right sucker, I mean buyer.
