Craigslist CHOPPER of the day.
After reading Jeff's Ducati search thread, I checked out my local CL. This ad is BAD TO THE BONE. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.
I'd post a picture, but I couldn't find one and I know all you 'picture hunters' would just steal it anyway! ![]() Reply to: sale-752937937@craigslist.org Date: 2008-07-13, 12:08AM MDT This is the famous aluminum chopper seen in many magazines and winner of best bike at Sturgis (beat out OCC, Jesse James, and everyone else). It is too beautiful to place pics here. If you are a serious buyer looking for one of the rarest machines and most stunning bikes ever shoot me an email and i will send pics (no pic hunters please. Pic hunters check out Jan 2007 issue of HOT BIKE). It comes with a written appraisal from 2007. Now it's more famous and more rare. Only one in the world. It weighs 497lbs WITH gas! It has NOT been in EASYRIDER MAGAZINE because they required a contract to not place it as a featured bike in any other mags after them. For $5k it just wasn't worth it. But if you wanted to make a quick $5k and let the world know she is yours go for it! 3500 original miles never blown, never injured, nothing but the finest. Arlen Ness sends parts for this machine from his personal workbench! Tom Peroni (TP Designs) who used to build motors for the space shuttles at lockheed-martin hand built and mated both the engine and tranny. TP motors are the Rolls Royce of Harley V-Twin style motors. ground polished aluminum with tri colored crimson-ruby, black, and clear over ground aluminum. If EVERYONE who EVER looks at it doesn't drop their jaw i will refund the money! (just kidding, but it is THAT beautiful, people want to lick it!). Oh, and not just another pretty face. Been clocked at 150mph pulling away hard from a Paul Smart Ducati! If you have never seen a $100k bike, this is it. Im sure a barrett jackson auction would fetch at least that for it. SERIOUS ONLY. LETTER OF CREDIT REQUIRED TO TEST DRIVE. HAVE A GREAT DAY and keep the shiny side up!!! Location: Boulder, CO. it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Oh, and I forwarded this CL posting to execmalibu, so that maybe they can set up a race between this fantastic chopper and his Targa.

Dayum... this one is faster than a Paul Smart, which is faster than a 900 SS... what on earth am I looking at Ducatis for? That, and I always wondered who built space shuttle motors. Pretty big job for just one guy; no wonder it's so long between launches.

Hey, don't make fun of his dislike of picture hunters!
Each picture downloaded or copied steals a little bit of that chopper, you know. |

There was a really nice aluminum bike on 'Biker Build-Off'. It was built by an Australian I think.
Not that this is it. But it was a sweet bike.

Do Space Shuttles have V twins also? ![]() Dam the picture poachers ! $65 K for a bike I would like at least a crayon composite sketch.

Anybody else worried about the vibration of that engine, the road shaking it, and all the aluminum tig welds?

Maybe he wouldn't put pictures in his ad because then you could see all the broken welds, I dunno.

I guess it's 'art', not a 'machine'.
Poindexter apologizes.

God made nice little Hondas (and Ducatis) for dweebs like you guys. You just don't get it. And, if he has to explain it to you, you wouldn't understand. Not that he would even take the time to try, you guys are so far beneath him. Cool is cool; those that have it, understand it, and those that don't, well, just don't. You are simply not worthy. Get over it.
