I can visualize Elvis in his white jumpsuit riding this bike down the Las Vegas strip!

Bike is for sale on EBAY

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Harley-Davidson-Touring-Harley-Davidson-Street-Glide-CVO-2005-Screamin-Eagle-Electra-Glide-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem2eb075c093QQitemZ200529002643QQptZUSQ5fmotorcycles

That's a lot of time and effort to immediately turn it.  Cutting up a perfectly good banana to make it something else your own is one thing.  Killing a great bike just to turn it...  Well...  Not my thing.

Hope wasn't any negative life thing that forced the sell.  Damn shame to kill a nice bike just to turn its spawn on eBay though.

With a starting bid of $29,900.00 for a 6 year old bike that retails for 16 to 18K it's highly unlikely to be snatched up in a bidding frenzy.

Lightning may strike and the gentlemen will find a buyer who falls in love with what he's done and simply has to have it.  I'd also be doubtful though.  It's too "one-off" for mass appeal.  The geometry suggests it might not handle all that well; at least when slow.  It's just one of those things one does for one's self.  Not something likely done for resale and profit.

Just to make it clear I built the bike for me I love the ride and how the bike turned out.  That being said I went to a bike show and saw a street glide raked 14 with a 26 in wheel and it opened up a can of worms.  I now want to do my tequila with a 30 air ride front and rear.  And also I don't feel I need to explain myself i pay my bills not the people on this forum if I want to buy every screaming eagle built and burn them it's my right and to those of you that love the banana that's great I personally wouldn't ride that bike to the grocery store.

This bike will get no bids on eBay. One man's vision of art does not make a $29,000 bike.

Your right it probably won't but people will see it and I have had a few calls I don't have to sell it I just thought I would list it to see what happens and it has had some interest. And also there 95 road kings bringing 50k and a friend of mine sold a 04 ultra for 75 some people don't get custom and want what everyone else has and that is what makes the world go round

Well said! :2vrolijk_21:  Not my style but I'm damn glad we don't all have the same vision or taste.......it'd be a very boring world.  Looking forward to pics of the Tequilla.........it's your money, you do what ever turns your crank. :2vrolijk_21:

I would have to go with that as well.  Not what I would have done but not my money, sure did a great job building it though good luck on the next one.

Bo, you don't have to explain yourself and no one suggested you needed to.  But you did start the topic of this bike on a forum whose purpose is conversation.  So conversation is to be expected.  Just because someone else has an opinion doesn't mean that you are being challenged or questioned.
