Claims they haven't touched it mechanically. Yet also claims its worth 10k? Non Running? LMAO.
I'd buy it if it wasn't gonna go for stupid money. :whatever:
They had a HUGE trailer at the upper swap meet at Barber's this weekend. I didn't see anyone visiting it.
Sold for $5,100.
I wouldn't be surprised if we see this listed again...
The false advertising on ebay is horrible. $1K in parts, maybe but how about the multiple other thousands in labor to get it running? boring/hone and crank work typically cannot be done in a hobbiest garage. You really need to have the crank out and the whole thing gone through.
That being said it does look like a nice original cosmetic condition survivor.
Why do we dislike Kaplan?

I've never met him. But, he posts things at extortion level prices and gets a LOT of things wrong with bikes. Claims original paint etc when it's clearly a repaint. That kinda thing.
