Dam thats a steal at $1k. If I was closer I would buy it for sure. Unless you are willing to ship??

If you decide to part I would be intersted in the rear swingarm and shock and the clamps for sure. I may be also interested in the wheelset, the brakes, the front forks, plastics, the engine, pretty much the entire bike except the frame. I have an extra SSR150R/slowracer frame lying around and for $1k I would consider buying yours complete and swapping all the parts over....hmmmm.....
 
Punk guitarist If you set up the shipping I'll ship and knock a few bucks off, and were do you live?
How much of the motor do you want palmtree?
I live in california. i have never shipped a complete bike before so I am not sure the best way to do that. I will PM you privately regarding price and the deal and everything, but if we can come to an agreement, breaking down the bike into multiple boxes is okay with me. I will be swapping everything over to a different frame so I would have to take it apart anyways. I will PM you or text.

Motor runs fine? Any issues with the bike? Suspension leaks? Adjusters work? Any cracks on the swingarm?

Why would you switch everything over to a different frame? The geometry is almost the same. It's not going to handle much different. Why go through the hassle? Serious question

For the same reason people would spend money on a reeg/billletware/etc crf70 aftermarket frame/chassis and then send it off to slowracer and pay him to cut up their brand new frame and reweld the headtube change the geometry of the frame. I figure if almost everyone who had full mod crf70's would spend the time and money to do this, and I already have one of these slowracer/ssr frames laying around then I might as well use it. Lots of people swear these frames are the best handling pit bike ever , better than bbr perimeter frames, so it would be a waste not to use it IMO.

I haven't ridden a piranha before, but I have asked about the difference between the slow racer and piranha frames to other people who have ridden both bikes and they said they are NOT the same and again the slow racer/ssr frame bike handles better. Would I be able to tell the difference? Maybe, maybe not, but if I have it I might as well use it. Plus if I sold it I could only get a couple hundred for it, and its not worth it to me to sell it especially now since you can no longer get them (except if you buy a used one).

But at this point probably wont even happen. This bike is an awesome deal and I would love to buy it but just sold two bikes because of bills I owed so it wouldnt be the smartest thing to go buy another bike after that....So to the seller: good luck with the sale. If you decide to part I may pick up a few parts.
