That's what I was thinking, at least it wasn't hacked to bits. I can't imagine that it's "fun to ride" like his fat tire cbr600 either.

.I love people who think the value of something is the sum of all the money dumped and wasted on it, including 100% of the $ they spent on labor. Everyone knows a $2500 paint job increases the value of something $2500
He probably still owes like $16K on the parts and bike.
Stupid person math:
Original New Bike $11,000 after all taxes/licensing/fees
$8000 Bling Bling Purty Custom Parts
$2500 Paint Job at House of Colors Paint Job
$3500 Paying somebody to put on Bling Bling parts because you have no sense or skills, if you did you wouldn't do that to a bike
= $25,000
Better ask for $29,000 so you can go to down $25,000 in case you just want to break even

You can all go f_-_ off! I just bought a rear tire and wheel from a corvette and am mounting it on my superhawk. Just cause you don't like it doesn't mean you have to _itch and complain about it. After I get my NOS and superbo (combination supercharger and turbocharger) installed, I will wipe the floors with you. Now, if I can only find dice for my mirrors....

My swingarm is going to be so long that I need to run 3 different jackshafts to get chain back to the 80 tooth rear sprocket. I think it is 9 feet (just swingarm). I am also fabbing up a storage system in the swingarm for those long trips to the local burger joint so I can pontificate about my awesomeness.

We all have swaptrex.
I ran into a local on a R1 with a 240 on it, and it was lowered. He still claimed that he could hang in the corners with any bike. Just had to get his knees out.
Yeah, coming from a guy wearing just a leather vest and a headband. He can hang in th ecorners.

But cleanup is much easier with a bucket to hold the "never used", "as new" brain, so I'd probably ask him to wear a helmet...

Back in the '60s, your girlfriend would make you a fuzzy mirror warmer. That would look cool on a bike, mirror warmers. (of course they'd blow right off)
Fuzzy dice were strictly a greaser (think Elvis)/lowrider thing. You'd see a mirror warmer on a jacked up '64 Plymouth Belvedere with a 426 Cross Ram Induction Hemi, but not fuzzy dice.
