Old thread resurrected , I know

However, I was bumbling through Steal-Bay and came across this and thought to myself “wow someone in BCF would want this!”

Jesus, mother of god.

I take back everything I've ever said about people who have no experience wanting to Bob their cg125. They're in no way as deluded as the person who birthed that monstrosity.

Here's what the frame supposed to look like:

https://suprememotos.com/kawasaki/99943-1987-kawasaki-zx750-fi-black.html

Could be that it was, originally, one of "those" builds, and the guy just stopped. However, it hasn't had an MOT since 2008, so presumably hasn't been on the road since then (which makes the presence of that Ebay speedo and the still-in-packet unused pod filters curious). Things you can't see in the photos: VIN number and the frame's top tube. I'm not sure what's been done to the swingarm - various Google pics of ZX750s show the caliper either above or below. As it's a different colour, perhaps it's a standard one that was bought by the seller after he acquired the frame. This is like a murder mystery.

It's not legit unless it says "L@@K", "Barn find" and/or "not" followed by the bike you were originally searching for in the title of the listing.

This nauseating, bad form over function pile of shite started out at £6000
and was last seen offered for £2500 which is still ten times as much as the
few useful parts are worth.

Can you even pass a mot with all the sharp mc stabby bits all over it?

If you are going to cut off the back hoop out of a frame, destroying its structural integrity, at least do it so the seat meets the tank.

If they don't fit good shocks then they don't understand what a cafe racer is.

£15k and half the pictures are thumbnails and the rest are shitty arty shots. You cant even see the terminator paintwork.
