Now HERE is a Project 3 Years, 6 Months ago  
Glad I wasn't riding this thing when it met it's ugly end:

http://www.salvagebikesauction.com/item.php?id=16936

The auction on this thing ends in four days so the link won't work for long. Interesting salvage stuff out there, though. I suspect you could pick up a bike or two a month, part them out on E-Bay and make a few bucks on the side.

Man... I hope the rider was okay. That thing is FUBAR... The engine looks like it might be okay, though. It might be good for cannibalizing the parts off of, or turning it into a bobber...

Re:Now HERE is a Project 3 Years, 6 Months ago  
In the car business we used to occasionally see a vehicle with what was referred to as "severe drop damage." Essentially someone managed to drop (drive) it off the top of a rail car or an 18 wheeler. This bike sort of reminds me of that.

It's the thing in the center of the fairing on Venture.
