Congrats! Now you can go back to your original listing and edit the title to say "SOLD" so three years from now people aren't still asking "is this for sale?" V/r Shawn

I hope the bicycle license decal on the rear fender wasn't removed? That's the great part about that bike. The fact it was owned by someone in S.F. is pretty awesome. If you've ever tried to ride a bike there, especially this heavy, you'd understand.

Absolutely beautiful!!! Thanks to the new owner for keeping it on there. I would love to own this one someday. S.F. holds a special place in my heart. Lots of great memories made there when I was growing up.
