Fully restored, including no side cover? What a dumb fuck. I meet people like that all the time (delusional about what it is they do, and what it's worth to someone else. Several right here on this site. A hack up is a hack up, unless it looks like it was BORN that way. That's a shit heel special. I don't care if they have a web site and vinyl on a big pickup. Don't mean your work don't suck.
BTW, what does the Canadian government have to say about advertising this thing as 1mile/kilo?

you beauty, we can start exporting our overpriced xs,s to Canada now
Ooh, what a rush to judgement.
Some scenarios for that asking price:-
It's a reasonable price in Oakville ON where they are all millionaires.
Or
SWMBO has said "That bike has gotta go!" and the snivelling wimp has knuckled under, saying "But only if I get back what I put into it including my time at shop rates."

If the builder is into that bike for $15,000 then he needs to consider getting into another line of work.
most builders on this site would have no problem replicating that bike for at most $5000.
An rich wanna be biker is not going to buy that for $15,000. They will do what all their other rich friends do and buy a Harley that they can park in their 3 car garage beside their Porsche.....

John does build some nice bikes, but I think somebody maybe parked that bike in front of his trailer for the kijiji picture.

I have no doubt that he good at what he does. I don't even know if it's him that are selling it.
i just wanted to point out how rediculous the price is.
