Why/who would do this to a MH?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1

I've got to admit, I like the way that looks. Quite a bit.

Not my first choice of colour scheme but very very well kitted, all those mods and they leave the OEM dash on it

Unfortunately with the trouble I have had and continue to have it is prolly the best thing for an MH to be highly modded out int something useful.

Yeah that guy got it either wrecked or salvaged ... I was trying to buy it off him and we talked but then he went silent. .... then the `tard calls me and offers it for all kinds of money and says it's ready to race now. I was like "Dude, I'm a PARTS DEALER: why would I pay you to put all that crap on there?!" This one that got away really irritated me.

I love those wheels on a double sided swing arm, but can't stand them on a single.

Personally, I think it looks badass.

I also like the bike

sorry

For those of you that liked it I say thanks. For those of you that didn't I say to each his own. For those that wonder why, the bike was damaged when I bought it and figured if I have to rebuild it I might as well do something a little different. To Chris, I "went silent" cause you wanted to buy it for nothing. And what exactly makes me a "tard" the fact that I wouldn't sell it to you for nothing WTF? Just figured that for what you were willing to pay for it I mght as well keep it and do something with it.

Looks cool to me.

..Its up again with only a coupla hundred miles on it and a lot more money

I sold the bike to a local dealer and they must have listed it on the bay. Also looks like they trying to make a bit on it.

Their really not worth as much as people flag them to be. Lots of people expect 15,000$+ or so, when their worth far less. I think his point was simply that by you putting parts on, and trying to sell it for more, was like pissing in a snowbank because he's a parts dealer. I wouldnt get too excited over it really.

Na not really too excited. Chris just seemed pretty cool on the phone and then refers to me as a tard on here. Just kinda funny. I'm a parts dealer also so I know how it is to try and buy something cheep before it's all tricked out. After all half the fun is building the things and hey I bought it damaged. I appreciate your though.

It's a scam, check out the auction. Anything seem a little fishy?

I'm not catching it. What am I missing? Rite bike rite parking lot and I didn;t have the rear stand with me when I had it there for the show. Fill me in ole E-Bay master! Or should I just

I stand corrected, someone is selling it for Rosenau.

Keith,
I believe I spoke with you about purchasing this bike a year or so ago, when you were deciding what to do with the bike. I have been kicking myself ever since for not taking you up on the offer to sell the bike. However, now that I have seen what you did with the bike, I'm glad you kept it, as I would never have done the bike the kind of justice you did. That is the best looking MH I have seen to date! You can bet if I ever find an "in need of a little TLC" MH again, I won't pass it up. I hope you don't mind if I steal some of your ideas!

Neil, thanks for the huge compliments! I was a little concerned whether or not I was going to take a beating from the MH community for "defacing" a limited production bike. If you think you might be interested in buying the bike it is at a dealer here in Michigan. I was buyibg a new house and needed some extra cash so I sold it to Rosenau Powersports. If you decide you want it and have any questions feel fre to IM me. If you decide to do one for yourself then best of luck to you and feel free to steel any of my Ideas as you need. Now stop with the flatery or your'e gonna make me build something else.

Well I guess with all the Jack Asses trying to scam on your'e auctions if anybody would catch a scam it would be you. How informative was the response to your'e question? Just wondering if anybody special is handling the sale.

Hi Keith,

I was under the impression that you got it wrecked and I said that I wanted to buy it wrecked and would pay up to $4k for it and then I'd race it.

When you called back describing how you fixed it all up for me to race, it was obvious to me that you don't understand what shops to to bring wrecked bikes to the track. I wasn't going to buy R&T forks ... I was going to find cheap 916 forks off eBay. I wasn't going to pay big $$$ for a paint job, etc.

Calling me back excited to offer it to me "to race" is how you earned the tard comment. Personally, I like that you made a road bike out of it ... and it IS cool. Considering how much I enjoy rebuilding bikes, I'm sure you got some pretty good reward and satisfaction out of that. The fact that you made it nontraditional I think is AWESOME, as I appreciate thumbing the nose to Ducati snobs.

Oh, sorry for not replying sooner ... been moving the shop and sorta busy. And just cause one little act makes you a tard in one way isn't that much of a bad thing. Good luck selling it... I ended up getting a virgin MH900e for pretty cheap. Seems the market is crap for used Ducatis.

Chris
