Also, check out the back tire in the last pic. Maybe an illusion, but there's not much tread left. May not have been crashed... but I bet it's been abused...

Nomad vs. Grand National. That's a tough one.
As far as the bike goes, he probably shaved off about 5 pounds by removing/cutting pieces... then put6 poundsright back on with oil lines, additional oil and the ***-bag mounted in front of the frame.
Interested bike, though. He got what he wantedout ofit.

I like it, I thought the remote oil thing was a Nitrous bottle.I don't know how far I could ride it but I think it looks cool.

Holy ****! That oil filter is trouble, I can bet you anything it will hit the ground. I also thought the bottle was Nitrous, I have seen one on a Shovel before.

Since he has the original parts, if the price stays low enough it would be a steal!
I don't understand why he offered such a low price. Is that inline with what a Stealer would give you for trade?

Oil filter is hideous. Something about that bike overall just makes it ugly.
