This ones different 7 Months ago  
I like old bikes, but this one isn't my style. Went on a poker run this weekend and saw a 71 BSA 650. Neat little bike

Said he spent $12,500 building it. Not sure where that went.

Re:This ones different 7 Months ago  
At first I was all, "now that's super cool! I'm sure it's worth a pretty penny!" Then I saw the digital gauge and thought, "Hmmm... that don't belong there... Kind of ruins it." But when I realized it wasn't a two-stroke, I was like... "Man! Bummer!"

It's a seriously cool bike, and I dig the 650 twin, but it's not $12k cool, or whatever he's asking. As a resto-rod, it'd be cooler if it had an updated suspension, brakes and maybe a hopped up motor too. But clean build either way.

Man, I thought I was gonna see a BSA when I opened that link. I had a '65 A-65 in a rigid frame stretched and raked with an 8" over springer. That sucker would walk away from my stock '72 Triumph Bonneville ( yes, the ugly oil in frame one) A real bitch to get started, but once you did, look out!

Sorry. I should have taken a picture of it, but now that I can't figure out how to post pics it wouldn't have done any good.
