How high do you have to be to create a listing like that?

All of his listings are like that. Seems he's parting out what was probably a nice complete low-mile 400C and expecting to make $50K on parts
He got a clutch basket nut for $47, engine cases for $1700, airbox for $474, fork tree cover for $118, rear fender bolts for $75, etc. It's nuts!

He has been doing it for awhile, I posted a few looks like nobody is biting though.

[scully]

I sent him a msg saying if he had 10 of those, I'd buy.....no reply :)

Looks like it is for the very rare single carb RD

I have clearly been going about this Ebay thing all wrong. I will shortly be listing a rusty RD350 chain guard for the reasonable price of $3000. I think I have two available. Then watch for me to finish a couple of my build projects very quickly!

So you reeeeally want an LC/RZ "Kenny Reoberts"?

"Only" $2300. That gets you a partial pile of parts. PPP. Shipped for +$400.

Maybe it's worth it? I dunno. Looks like random junk to me.

Seller: "Add your choice of RZ or Banshee engine and small parts and get ripping for half of what these bikes are selling for now !!". Uh huh...

Nope, $400 is just to crate it and drop off at the shipper. Actual shipping would be extra.

Those chrome wheels look really weird. never seen that before.

[RDFL]

I like how he placed wheels, saves you from figuring out where they would go.

[soonerbillz]

Yep... the thing is.. would anyone really expect 50 year old vinyl to survive 1 good ride?
Show piece only.. if it is perfect.
That price!!!
