The bike clearly has the value to justify the price he wants for it. What I think is going to be the issue is anyone wanting to pay that much for a china girl. Yes, its an expensive bike. Yes, its got a shift kit and expensive tires and probably other upgrades as well. But at the end of the day, its still just a china girl. I'm not criticizing the man's work or the fact that he wants $1200 for a bike that is clearly worth it. But I know I wouldn't pay $1200 for any bike with a china girl, even if I had it. for $1200, you can build a non-kit 4 stroke and have money to spare. In fact, I'm building a 98cc Lifan on an American made Schwinn with Suzuki motorcycle forks, and I'm only going to spend $800 at the most, and I'll probably value my bike at $1500 when its complete, even though I won't be selling it, that's the value that I feel it will have. But does it mean anyone would want to pay that if I did decide to sell it? No.
