This thing is set up and ready to go. About the only thing it needs is a paint job and a front fender (which I have plans to buy and mount if it sits here much longer) and maybe some seat foam (which I may have lying around somewhere). It is currently primed and ready to paint, which I had planned to do and may still but the price will obviously be a little more. 'Currently have too many projects and too little time. Asking $3500 more pics here on the Craigslist ad.
What has been done to the motor that is in the bike? 750 kit? Rephase? Cam? Ignition? Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Sad but true dougie....little 1 bdrm shack with no bikes since 2015....BUT.... What does that have to do with you touching Walkers bike and the value drops? I do miss you guys in a slap-happy-three-stooges-kina-way Good luck with the sale....I'll say it again...Walker puts together some really nice bikes
I have a complete (disassembled) separate motor that's included with the bike. I tore it down to the crank to send off to be rephased but life/work got in the way and the whole thing was sidelined. :/
'Family stranded...on the corner at Walmart...need gas to get home...and cigarettes and beer. $3K? Someone buy this girl.
Maybe we were wrong about the whole unpainted potential thing, James. Maybe curious potential buyers have no imagination. This bike is about a $200 away from looking like this.
