He was doing ok, up until the candy paint on the cases.

That kinda killed it for me.

The side covers are very, well super, yea, very something... Not my taste.

paint can be blasted off. they are tacky but.. taste is subjective

Anyone else find the description difficult to read? Run-on sentences with random or missing punctuation, and without caps. Why can't people write and communicate effectively?
Pop on another set of freshly painted black engine covers and that issue is fixed. Nice air filters.   That asking price is pretty damn rich for what's there and what's left to do.

Anyone notice the purple triple sitting on the lift?
EDIT: found it
Dude definitely has unusual taste. Note the copper colored hardware on the rear wheel
