Buy it now for 12k. So I guess around there. 40k invested?

Seems like a lot.

$10,000 - scroll down, it's on there...
Not bad, I'd say...

Wow. They even painted the engine. They closed up the frame at the top of the tank. I really like these ideas (as I'm getting more momentem into paint).

Thanks for sharing. Great ideas. The graphics gave me some ideas too.

I would sell both my bikes to buy that one. That is one nice custom job.

Re:Nice roadstar here 9 Months, 4 Weeks ago  
$40,000.00 invested and asking only $10,000.00 to buy it? Hmmmm, let me see, 10,000 IS less than 40,000. Yeah, I'd say that was a BAD investment.

There are lots of folks who sell their bikes and use the word investment in place of the word spent. I guess it makes them feel better to live in a fantasy world where they can spend money on a toy and claim that it will somehow be a conduit for increasing their financial position.

For the benefit of people like the one who posted the Ebay ad, here's what invest really means: use of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value.

Can you tell that use of invest to mean spend bothers me???

In the same boat, Mark. It says "worth $40k". It's only worth what people will pay. I think in this economy, he's going to find out just what it's worth.

Tinker and upgrade because you like to, people. You're never getting that money back.

Re:Nice roadstar here 9 Months, 4 Weeks ago  
Are you guys really bitching cause he used the word "invested"? He built a kick ass bike and now he's selling it, that's his business, apparently this is yours

3. bitching
Repeatedly saying something over and over, or rather whining about it, therefore destroying the point you were trying to make and making you look like a complete bitch because no one is listening to you.

And then to do it on this site where we all customize our bikes to our own liking
