Why!!!! I have to sell my beloved motorcycle for the age old reason of time. money and a baby!!!This bike has been in my life for over 4 years and I have built it up from a frame. The engine is out of a CX500 eurosport making this an ideal usable custom bike and as you can see it looks nothing like the original bike!There are loads of great features including a custom made boot side stand. seat pan made from a fire extinguisher and the seat is covered using an old donkey saddle. There is also a customized Harley front fender. customized BSA fender made into a rear hugger. nbsp;professionally adjusted rear frame and powder-coated frame to give it a different look and side mounted number plate. Stainless downpipes and slash cut exhaust with exhaust wrap. I have the V5 and the bike is fun to ride. Insurance isn't as bad as I thought and I went through Flux (cheapest I could find with all the modifications covered) that was half what others quoted me. I have taken it off the road for the time being as its just been through a shakedown after being built and it will need collecting by trailer as there was some steam coming from the overflow (Custom Whisky Overflow). Speaking to my mechanic he believes its either the rad valve (that can simply be removed or bypassed) or head gaskets. I am selling the bike as a none running project. Issues that I am aware of have been listed in the Condition description. I would recommend seeing the bike before you bid however I have put photos of the blemish on the tank and a bit of surface rust on the pipe. Other than that the bodywork is done in a monster theme and is not finished to a smooth shine (as that's not the look I was after). The bike is not new and is custom built as a monster machine (hence the name of Frank). There's a YouTube clip of the bike running if you search CX500 Frank (SOUNDS AWESOME)Please bid kindly as this is one off and allot of my money and time has gone into the bike!No time wasters and cash on collection only. Collection to be made within 3 days of end of auction. Good luck and hope you win the bid!Any questions or to arrange a viewing please call me on 07814462828
