Has the seller not looked for comps?

Your RD does not have tuned spokes.... And for that reason I'm out.  :confusing2:

ok, this one needs to be saved for posterity after the listing is removed. its too fucking ridiculous.

"I bought this barn find Yamaha RD 350 just like the one I rode in high school in a container at a gentleman's farm about 40 miles from my house. It was in decent condition all the tanks and everything look good but I took everything else apart and rebuild and restored everything and it has so much work done to it anything you ask me I'm sure I've done to it I have receipts totaling up over $20,000. You're getting a beautiful bike for thousands less than I paid to do all the work on it this past year!!!And that's been taken care of and worked on for over a year. I also have Extra cylinders that have been bored  out with the Weisco pistons and rings  and it's also been ported and polished and also have the  stock heads that are on the bike now with  brand new with ported heads OK ask. $17,000 is a least a 3 thousand dollar loss for me and you don't have to wait it is all done and rides really well and is tuned to perfection as well. Oh I also have and had the stock pipes and shocks rechromed and have those too "

also, and I may be wrong, is that the my pillow guy?

Evans Ward

I think that's him!  :eek:  From a search today, I saw news feed stories of him auctioning off equipment etc due to declining sales/ sales slump. If he went on an intense lifting workout program, he could hoist that RD like he does the lack of sales My Pillow!  :haw:

His high school was located in a container!  :huh:  I'm calling simulation on that one! Now.. just strap that My Pillow on that RD seat and ride away into the sunset in comfort!  :olaf:
