My goodness! That chinabike is a much better deal than the Honda scooter!

Grab it! With about $600 in parts, you could turn that into a $500 bike.

SpudRider · 04-06-2012, 03:16 PM

Ouch! 8O

Ouch is right.

I bet it could be fixed for nearly free.

Andy gives me used tires in great shape he takes off of people's bike when they buy new ones.

Weldangrind · 04-06-2012, 04:52 PM

I know that it could be fixed for nearly free, but then I'd start looking at everything that I could upgrade. Hmm, maybe new bars, a new muffler, a Mikuni, a better chain...

Ya gotta love it for what it is. :P

I know, but my tools just call to me.

This would be a deal for me. Already disassembled for ebay.

It did run before tear-down

Then why did he tear it down? Easy portability in the trunk of a car is not likely the answer! LOL!

katoranger · 04-09-2012, 03:23 PM

I would offer about $200 for the motorcycle in the box. It is on the older end of things.

This one. Think he could show me the made in Japan sticker.

Delusional CL people are so funny!

Well there was a time during WW II when much of China was Japanese but I don't think the seller is referencing that historical nuance.

Caveat Emptor, but I wish we could warn people about sellers like that.

What? 8O You guys haven't heard of the Japanese manufacturer, Roketa? :roll:
