after riding harleys for years and than getting married and divorced i was without a bike and money for about 3 years....
well...with the prices of the yuppiebikes ( by the way i rode shovelheads!!)I was certain never to ride again....specially with my income.... but guess it wasnt over......found this 650 classic in the "nickel" and got it for the 1/10 th of the price of a FatBoy... :)
scratches and dents didnt really bug me....and so i converted it into my $ 45 dollar "custom".... $ 35 dollars for "harley"parts on a swapmeet and $ 10 dollars for rattlecanblack... still some chrome left...but i promise : I WILL WORK ON THAT
for some funny reason the harleyriders (pushers and trailers) cannot believe it and the yamahadealer doesnt like me anymore...:)
those 650 s are better than the people say....runs perfect with my girl on the back...easy up to 90 mph...enough for a speedingticket
anyways: my V-Rat Roadkill is running loud and black......
by the way....awesome site...even though there aint no real ratbikes in this valley....just all that chromecrapp
