What a P O S !!
Don't get me wrong, I am all for doing stuff to bikes just "because you can" and each to their own, but that's just hideously hideous.
but the CB900 café racer in the "what other people also viewed..." section below this ad has potential....

It's not. It might be worth £3.50 in scrap metal, but that's about all. The seller is clearly delusional (or taking the piss).

It's like a lot of so-called art in my opinion; the artist is having a laugh. However, there's an old saying that is apt:"A fool and his money are easily parted", so no doubt some pretentious a*se will want it to show that he's on a different level to the rest of us.

Was so tempted to ask the seller Is this a Halloween special or an early April Fool .
Total dung heap, total piss take

People are stupid. Someone will probably buy it, thinking that because it's advertised for a lot of money, it's really good! Then he will proudly show it off to people like me, who will politely say "not my cup of tea mate, but whatever turns you on"

£3.50 looks about right to me!

It's not that expensive - you could only get a couple of Falcos for that sort of money ..............

No just rude.

Definitely not! I'm normally fairly diplomatic and try not to offend but I'd find it impossible to be polite about that.

This 'thing' is only 10 miles from me, I'm so tempted to see if it's as sh1t in real life or if they're just bad pictures and there's actually the real bike hidden behind it.
