No word of a lie some American is asking 1.2 million for a Gumpy ZX10R on ebay

Not my cuppa tea

Whilst I loved the movie Boondock Saints - I really dont like what he's done to that bike... not my cuppa tea either!

Why do so many 'artists' attempt to improve on perfection ???? First there was the biggest 2 wheeled stereo gumby now a 'grindedmetal' gumby???
If I want a "grindedmetal" finish I'd simply need to give her a nice gentle lowside
"gotta add value!!" (the castle)

say it with me now kids...."stupid fucken Sepo's!!"

So what we have here is:

This bike has over $25,000 in labor and over $20,000 invested in parts

It is a 167 hour process to achieve this kind of look.

...but he's asking $US1.2 million, which equates to $US45,000 for the bike, approx 3-4 times the worth of a 2006 ZX-10R and (i'm guessing) $1,155,000 in value-added labour, or approx $US6916.17 per hour. That's more than my dentist.

I don't know much about spray-painting but for $7k an hour I'd expect a lot more than some fat smelly dude and a spray-gun and an American accent.

At the very least I'd want dinner, a night I'll never forget in Vegas, and some really (and I mean really like Cameron Diaz, really) QUALITY umm, action. AND for the price of this bike I'd expect Groundhog Day daily for six months.

What an absolute and utter wanker. He really needs to get his hand off it as that bike is butt-ugly (and not a Cameron Diaz butt way either).

TELL 'IM HE'S DREAMIN' !!!

what a fucking spanker.....

That's what you'd expect your bike to look like after your 7 year old got to it with a can of primer and a brush. What a joke....and oh by the way for 1.2mill at least he could put up some decent photo's

you seriously gotta be shitting me! definatly not my style of bike!

80% of the 1.2mil goes to charity? So he expects to pocket $240,000 for the bike ..... uh huh


"This vehicle is eligible for up to $50,000 in Vehicle Purchase Protection. " .... $1.2mil for the bike, $50k coverage....sounds good

A shame there's no section for all the crazy Q & A that goes on on some ebay auctions

That's a steal! Don't know what you guys are on about, seriously..

I don't get the mindset at all, i just don't get it.
