yeah, sadly i sold it. 6000 bucks which isnt bad at all. But i didn't have the money to restore it proper. Hell, with 6k i can get something newer and nicer, but i think most of this money will be going to bills.

you did the right thing it takes a hellava lot of talent and cash to do a 100 point resto on a bike. and even more cash if someone else does the work you got it for 200 and sold it for 6000 very nice profit for little or no effort. you got your gift for the century pay your bills and get the wolves off your back for awhile. nice score and nice going don't feel guilty at all.

You did A-OK. You made yourself happy for a while, you made your family happy, you made us all excited for a while (thank you). No regrets ok? And in the future some guy is going to buy this bike, all restored, and be happy too.

Cashion, OK
