Default Quick! Somebody spot me $32.5 k !

If I had the cash it'd already be in my garage.

I remember the Biker Build-Off episode where they built this bike. I was so bummed he didn't win that I immediately went online and bought one of their t-shirts.

Not everyone's cup o' tea but I think it's beautiful and a steal at that price for a custom build.

Default couple of ideas

If i have learned anything from buying my bike on Craigslist, everyone like a lowballer $20,000.00. If that doesn't work go kick the tires and take a test ride, and call it a good day.

This is why you don't have the $32.5K
