He will be carrying that ad for a very, very long time
Ad says he is very, very firm on the price. He will be carrying that ad for a very, very long time. Dunno why one would put a big bore kit in a V700.
I was alluding to a big bore kit with those tiny valves? I remember 50 years ago the hot ticket was to get an Austin Healey and put a Chevy II engine in it. These days they are paying big bucks for one with an original engine.
In the late '80's I worked with an engineer that put a 500 hemi into a bugeye sprite.
If the work had been done by Charley Mullendore it might be worth $10K . Sorry , no one has ever convinced me that Cycle Garden's stuff actually sells for ridiculous prices . Dusty
Moe's clientele is more the Hollywood types that are willing to pay for non-HD bikes that are classics and unusual.

Cycle Garden's stuff may sell, eventually, but it may often sell below original asking price. I'm more familiar with the Norton world, where Colorado Norton Works sells essentially "remanufactured" or "upgraded" Commandos for a price that is higher than what a reasonably astute shopper would pay for TWO well-restored Nortons done by anyone else - and that's over & above the cost of the donor bike!. CNW's bikes are admittedly nice but they aren't even close to stock, & the two that have been done for people in my neck of the woods don't seem to be any more trouble-free than the well looked after more stock Commandos in this area.I don't know from personal experience, but I suspect that Cycle Garden's "stuff" may fit in the same general category as CNW's - looks very pretty when done, but with more than even minimal actual use it really isn't really enough "better/improved from stock" to be worth the premium cost unless you really have deep pockets & cost is no consideration.
