You've actually gotten a lot of feedback from guys who know a lot more about this stuff than I do. However, it's a regional thing. We all know what we know about the area we live in.

Personally I think it's a really cool bike. Post it up in the Milwaukee Craigslist classifieds, add some shipping, and see what happens. Or Ebay. I've made good money on oddball bikes there.

Thanks for the tip and compliment. I'm not sure what these guys know or don't know about this stuff. I'm 65 and owned a Harley since I was 18. Built them, rebuilt them, chopped them. I'm old school and happen to like the style. Not too many do these days and I get it,

Bob makes a good point too, get it advertised in the bigger urban area's where the hipster crews hang out who knows it could be an item. I'd suggest a lot of time spent on Craigs and other like venues to get a feel for what if any similar to it are actually selling for. Out this way it'd be a tough one, east coast cities who knows but it better a easy kick runner to have any chance, nobodies gonna spring $$ for a chop that's sat otherwise. Way too many low priced newer used bikes out there right now, his is a very specific target market.

Chicago also has a big Chop-Cult following. There's a great show coming up called Motoblot - http://motoblot.com/

Again, a bike like that would generate tons of interest.

Looks pretty wild, I think I'd like to go there. I might be old, but I can still kick it over!
