Sweet SS on Ebay

Checkout this hotsie totsie!! I wish I had the bones for it! The frame looks exactly like the one in my avatar. I could probably rig up mine similar to this guy's. Only I like the gold color better than my orange.

Kona SS

Man, that things beatiful. I can think of about 10 reasons not to get it. The 1 being that I'd be sleeping outside with it on the porch.

He's the original owner, and built it up in 1980, yet it only has a few hundred miles on it? How can that be?

Wow, it is one sexy machine, though. Damn, it's my size too. Damn .... damn .... damn (trying to convince myself not to bid) ... damn ... damn ... I want it.

I bid $200 on the Kona. Instantly outbid, but that's all the spare $$ I had to spend.

Cool bike!

i bet he's just one of those guys who gets a bike and just lets it sit....a collector. i hate those guys. "never been raced," "had it since 1980," "only a few hundred miles." yeah...seems like either he's telling lies or just a collector. i hate those guys.

A great way to haul your bikes around if you're collecting instead of riding. Be sure and read the description of this ideal bike hauler.
