    Haha. I mean. Really. It has a title so it should be worth at least the xbox1 +2 video games!!! Geesh. That’s gotta be around the 100-120$ mark for a titled motorcycle. He didn’t say it all needed to be new stuff. Hmm.
    My dad would be shaking his head and asking himself where he went wrong. Oh the guilt.

    and people wonder why we say "don't cut". More than half of the cut frames don't end with a running bike!

    Damn, the owners manual goes for nearly that price online! And why would you buy a new front tire at that stage of the build? Seems like the cart is before the horse!

    Or the horse is an @$$

    For $50, who cares if it ran.

    ''Ran before Teardown".....I'm sure it did! I'm also sure it looked good before Teardown, too. It was probably very safe before Teardown, as well.

    I don't have a problem with people cutting their bikes up. I have a problem with them destroying the bike. The problem is that so many aim for the former and attain the latter. Bike building looks so easy on teevee, anyone can do it, right? Well, the large amount of "project/parts" hack jobs for sale out there say otherwise. Congrats to the few who succeed, warnings to those who fail.
