I just bought mine tonight. $900 and it is running. 100% complete and solid. could have had it for $800, but I was dealing with a frenchman. I went to say, ''je te donnerais huit cent'', but neuf cent came out of my mouth. I am sure 8 wouls have taken it cuz she didn't even hesitate on accepting the offer of 9. Oh well.....I would have given the grand with no hesitation.
I gotta tell ya tho......I would almost give a grand for that bike just to have the body work for spares. if you have an engine already to pop in that thing, I would say go for it. I am considering putting my spare 92 1127 in my kat, or even the V&H engine...not sure yet. still haven't decided if I will go back to original bike, or make a real streetfighter out of it.
So...if you can afford it Matt, go for it. If you don't count your time you put into getting it up and running, you will easily get your money back by selling it with a motor in it.I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

I wish I could make something happen for you. I am looking. CP mentioned something as well, so you are both in my mind when I am searching.
CP...I want to offer you that 750 so bad, but I know I will hate myself if I don't try to snag it for myself. the gf and I have this picture in our heads of a matching set....her on the 750 and myself on the 1100.
they are around. i can get you something if you are patient....but no garantee when. there is one advertised now that is mint, but he wants $6k CDN for it. too steep. well, not really if you have the $ and can appreciate it.I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

hey...I was looking at the pics of the roller, and something hit me funny. took me a bit to figure it out, but now I see it. you are missing some bodywork. under the nose there is a suareish panel....I believe it is like an air scoop...or ram air. I believe it is designed to serve a purpose, although you could live without it. just thought I would bring that to your attention in case you didn't notice. you can see what I mean in the pic of the mint one.I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

(all tongue-in-cheek, with a little hint of real desires sprinkled over it)

well...I went ahead and bought it. Talked to the guy tonight and he's throwing in a bunch of extras (mojoe I'll make a list of any left overs) and yes, he has the little pieces that go under the nose fairing.
He's going to drive it up here in the next couple weeks and I'm getting a used three place motorcycle trailer in the deal as well.
Now I have to decide who gets the B12 motor first...into the 89 GSXR chassis or into the 82 katana chassis.
Mojoe...did you day something about an extra 1127????
