One man's trash is another man's... well, trash actually. Yet another in the endless parade of examples of things that make sense only to their creator.

It's nicely executed if that is your thing..... but $20K+ for a removing a bunch of original pieces, painting it all black and fitting knobby tires and a plank seat???
I think it would struggle to sell for half that. The public rarely pays for customs, been there done that, learned that I made -$10.00 per hour on every one I made no matter how beautiful or the quality of the parts or build.
Customs are a labour of love, beats drinking some days and golf any day, but like drinking and golf ain't no one going to pay me for doing either.

A Scrambler with no fenders eh? I wonder if he ever even rode this anywhere? DonG

OK , look I am an airhead guy , love the dang ill handling things , warts and all. But this thing is worth maybe $1,500.00, emphasis on the maybe, if it runs well . We have been seeing more and more of these bikes butchered , the sellers usually making crazy claims about the builder being a famous BMW guru . Fact is , no "famous" BMW guy , someone like Matt Parkhouse , or Todd Rasmussen , would ever create something like this . Sorry , will someone please make the madness stop :sad:

Reads like a scam. Bike is in OH and has MT title. $20K.

It's the "hipster effect" that causes this type of nonsense.
-
There's gotta be more pics. Where's the rest of the bike?

Well.....technicall y. They are motorcycles. No sure if the seats would pass though. Depends on the state requirements on Reconstruct motorcycles. Plus, I don't see mirrors and/or all the rest of the lights. Pictures not detailed enough.

Well, it's easier to title and insure in Montana using a 'motor voter' LLC or similar means to establish residency there. Not an uncommon approach for builders of customs given Montana's (shall we say) 'flexibility' on registering vehicles that are not common manufactured machines. I've known a couple of builders in Nevada and California who used Montana and Idaho as locations to register their creations.

This thread is funny. :boozing:

A title for a bike from a different state than the one you live in would indicate to me that there may be problems to look for. Definitely something to check out.

well- I just gave them my best offer of $100-- hope they turn it down :boozing: :boozing:

What's astounding is that this piece of crap has a Suzuki 650 motor, is titled as a BMW R60, and has been bid up to $2850. :shocked:
