Kool, but I, personally, would rather have a stock bike. YMMV of course.

I agree with everyone .

Cool bike. Evan Williams is an artist.

If it came with the stock parts it would be a hell of a deal.

2 days left...now relisted @ $9500 - - NO BIDS - - but also NO RESERVE! :undecided: :rolleyes: :shocked: :wink:

Evan Wilcox is a Master aluminum fabricator...and his excellent work does not come cheap. 

I still think this is a cool bike! :thumb: :cool: :1:

Nah It's not my taste for one but better yet why take a vintage V7 classic and destroy it? A T3 would look the same except for the brakes and maybe the dash.
I think there are certain vintage bikes that are pure classics and should stay as close to 100% as possible. I say the V7 sport is one of those. I'd put he 1000S and maybe all the LMs and the 750S in there. Daytona is another. There are a few more I am sure.

Although a cool bike...no disagreement.  The 750S and the 750 S3 are very rare and should be kept stock...and to a degree, the 1000S...and just like this one also....the legendary V7 Sport!!  :thumb: :cool:

This is the 4th time this bike has been listed on Ebay in 4 weeks, if it was really as nice as it is described, I think it would be in a new owner's collection. I do like the theme of it, however I agree that it is built on a very low production model which would be better served as completely stock.

The photo's don't really match the description, it says "fresh build" and "mint" but when you zoom in on the pictures it seems that it was assembled some time ago. I noticed that the rear tire has a DOT date code of 2009.
