"Custom" 990.

"the bike is a complete custom creation from the ground up. Original owner, only ridden to shows or on charity rides."

I guess, removing the fenders and making it a single exhaust is all you need to slap a custom label on your bike and charge $4k over the going rate

Here's an album of the bike incase the listing gets pulled:

I'm sure this is how a lot of old timers see kids now a days ripping fenders off CB750's and calling them "Cafe".

At least the owner has gone to the trouble of aiming that headlight onto his rim tape on the front wheel so you can see it in the dark!

What a drongo, would be awesome in the rain if you could see past the water spray or is it only meant to be put on display to win trophy's at some hill billy farm shows?

Having no tail is just plain ridiculous, I dont know how or why people think it looks good on any bike to not have a tail of some kind, just as bad as the streetfighter scene with the kicked up near vertical tails which look just as stupid

The thing I like best is the rim tape

Dear someone be different.If he he covered it in lots of stickers and cheap Chinese billet shit it would be much better I suppose.I think If one has a closer look at it,there is a lot more work gone into this build than first meets the eye.Not saying it's my ideal build but there is that clean,minimalist,anti bling backyard build look that I find quite appealing.Cheers.

I was'nt thinking of the price he was asking.That's his business and I don't give a shit.I was just commentating on all the negative comments on the bike itself.If it is different than the most of the boring blinged up shit since the 1290r has come out then that's a good thing.I think it is a good thing that I can't post pics on this site because I would probably cope similar comments on my build.Sorry to sound so negative but this forum is starting to lose it's soul in the last 12 months or so.

Nice flat round headlight or just a number board on the front and I would quite like that

As for the price.... Things are worth whatever people are prepared to pay for them, who cares.

I still like the Bike Shed mock up. Just a photoshop job but I come back to it often. If there was an exchange kit available I would be tempted to do that.
