I’ve seen a lot worse for the money. It won’t win many points for originality, but would make a super nice rider. The addition of pinstripes,and a nice tank, plus some detailing would make that bike really pop.

Really is a nice looking rider.Price is not too bad but maybe the seller will negotiate to close a deal.

It's about 10 minutes from me. If that was a cantilever frame bike I would have been all over it. I just can't connect with straight bar bikes. As a kid I never had one nor ever wanted one. I'm not a bike collector and the history of bikes doesn't mean much to me. There just has to be some personal connection and that's pretty much limited to 50's-60's B6's Phantoms and Middleweights.
