Hey, that's pretty cool. Very nicely done, in my humble could do with getting rid of all the hugger stickers though.
Why do you think it's a scam? Nothing too radical there.

Awsome bike! Good for whoever buys it.You end up putting more into it than you get out of it when selling it .

Where have i been! That is about one of the most ride-able street fighters i've seen!!!! and is not to be messed with!!! I guess it depends if it goes for that price?

Hey smooth! could you ride the paint off that thing on the B-Ridge roads or what!!! Spoke with Rob he said they are thinking about a fall ride but ????? No dates or where yet..

Looks legit... It's a 97 and he'll probably get $4k, which is twice what a 97 is worth KBB.

He did put tons of work in it... Obviously a project bike fanatic... He looks like he likes building them more than riding...

He even painted the chain LOL!

I'd try to ride the pain off it.

I'd love to do a fall ride. Been checking for more info when I get home on the weekends. (tile setters don't need lap tops) Soon as a date pops up I'll try to work it in.

Carry Andrews has/had a awsome Bandit. If your not familar,he's a ex-endurance racer from Ca. that also buids bikes and motors for racers. It was on the cover of SportRider a few yrs.back.Had the stock bodywork(1si gen) but lots of motorwork,suspension,kein flat slides,and after market wheels that run about $3K. Claimed 160hp.

A set of light weight wheels,(a couple grand) and a GSX-R front end,would aliminate alot of unsprung weight!Could kick ass ,and piss off sport bikes with a Bandit.
