some poor bastard is about to lose it in a divorce.  I think motorcycles should be exempt from communal assest statements.

Shes probably only making him sell it to hurt him..... I know it would hurt me.

Wow. That is one inspiring machine.

I like how he did the tank pads and how he filled up the gap caused by the lack of airbox.

Damm fine bike, but it needs a good ride, just look how clean it is, those carbs & oil pan are bloody spotless not one mark on them. I love a shiny clean bike but there's 'clean' & then there's CLEAN.

That sure is too shiny to be an airhead!
If my wife and I ever divorced and she forced me to sell my R65, I'd be sure to make her sell the house ..

$12,500 is a little stiff!

Could be he thought his wife was worth more than she actually was too................ LOL

I hope he is not the Auzzie chap who contacted me several times a couple of years ago, asking me where I got much of the kit that was on mine.

It would be sad.  $12,500 will probably not cover the cost of getting someone else to do all the work for you though.

Shame, whatever
