Bellmouths specially designed to catch the rain and crap, can't think why it's seized. And the seat could damage the gentleman region. Otherwise absolutely fabulous bike.

Forums always make me laugh at how people slag off stuff that isn't their cup of tea, as long as it's got 2 wheels, is ridden and someone loves it I don't care what it is, if you own a bike it is yours to do with what you want and it's not open for question as long as it is safe, make it your own and make it the way you want it and sod the nay sayers, how boring life would be if we all had the exact same standard bike.

Don't know what the problem is. Imagine the laugh you could have turning up at places on that. £79 I'm tempted to buy it myself and take it to the isle of man.  At least you'll be talked about and people would get a good laugh out of it. If you saw some of the shite I've ridden over the years. May have to make it safe first though.

I do love it because it makes me smile, I would never diss someone else's ride and I wouldn't take issue with them because they had the temerity to change their own bike into something they want, if that's what they want and it brings them pleasure that's all that matters and I definitely wouldn't post it on the internet with the express intention to have it ridiculed, royhall has the right idea, celebrate it don't denigrate it, if the person who made it like that felt like he/she was in Easy Rider even for a nano second whilst riding it then it's mission accomplished as far as I am concerned.

Your point being ? I sold my 1972 MGBGT a few years ago, I'd had it since I was 17 and stilled loved it but personal circumstances sometimes dictate, as for the bike in the first post of this thread it hadn't been on the road for 10 years but he still kept hold of it.

I find well used ratty bikes appealing but ape bars,sissy bars and king&queen seats are still a no no.
Bikes deliberately made to look ratty never look right.

I don't think anyone is really slagging it off....its just not to everyone's  taste ...I personally think it's truly awful and quite possibly a death trap
But I was the first bidder £15
I have a job for the wheels if the engine wasn't seized I would still bid...
if I'm drunk when it ends I may bid more
