He got the starting price right.  What's the deal with putting those Shinko M&S tires on street bikes?  Gonna use it to plow the north 40?

Looks like it's half way there. . . to wherever it's going.
$20.00 I wonder where it'll end up?

Will it hit $500?

that's encouraging, $500+ for a ratty non runner.  There's a guy in Florida who sells barn find bikes on ebay, usually not running, also starts bidding at $1 no reserve, usually does pretty well.

$665

My guess now is $750.

There's still some time.

Wonder if the lucky person is on here?  They will not get quite such a ride for de-looping given the current appearance of said bike.

US $1,275.00. Unbelievable. That's food for thought for those of you who see a complete, not-bad-looking K bike for sale and say, "It's OLD. $1000 TOPS!" And you know who your are!

Bidding fever.  If he would have listed it starting at $500 nobody would have bit.

That,s a lot of Moola for a parts bike without all the parts.

I'd love for whoever bought it to sign up here and take us through the revitalization process.

Maybe the engine is strong.

Oh, wait, they all are!

Maybe the splines are in good shape.
