That one's a beauty.... but no bids on it yet. He's asking a lot

That one looks nice too. This is the second time hes had it up. He did have a bid at 19,995 the last time but his reserve is even higher then that!
Not to sure the real collectors are looking at that bike. Seems he has several things changed that should have been correct on a "72". The speedo should have the offset 20. In fact the gauges look remade and maybe not even restored. Also the carbs are incorrect for the 72. Not the original exhaust, that would be a hard find anyway. Also the vin sticker must have been remade and really looks incorrect.

I have seen this one on ebay before. Notice, he doesn't have that picture of the neck sticker any more. I bet he got asked about that one a lot. I would want to see the bike up close for that price. Something about that re-made neck sticker seems fishy to me.

EDIT: I see the neck sticker now, it's further down the ad. Oopsie!
