If you fancy parting with nearly 13 grand for a second hand bullet then have a look on ebay,theres one for sale as a custom bobber!MADNESS!

If you click on the seller's "other items" you will see he has another Bullet there for .... you'd better sit down .... £15,999!!

Maybe the first digit was a mistake. £2,999 might be more realisic.

Well, the guy is a dealer, he should have an idea what bikes are worth. I'll not be raiding the piggy bank though.

The Ebay item number is 111206686032 in case this sort of thing floats your boat. Personally I suspect there is a good reason why you never, ever, actually see these things on the road!

Oh, I've seen a few bobbers on the road but only ever one out-and-out chopper. They must be murder to ride, especially if the fork angle hasn't been addressed properly as on many amateur ones.

yes this pair of bullets are very exspensive and i think for the sellers they have probably learnt a lesson ,don,t give a mediocre indian motorcycle the full custom works ,these bikes were done proffesionally at great cost they have appeared in a lot of custom bike magazines ,i happen to have met one of the guys who owns the bobber ,the chopper is owned by his brother they run a family firm that sells bikes and they also run a motorcycle training firm ,as these bikes are not to everyones tastes i think they may struggle to sell them and recover their outlay but sutch is life ,my word on this is, if i was going to get a custom made motorcycle built it would not be built around a bullet,but if you think these are pricey i saw a custom made diesel bike at the latest stafford show and if memory serves me correct it was over 6 grand it was also very tasty but a trifle salty as my great grandad for Aberdare would have said happy days Paul.

I never really understood the chop idea. Ugly, if you ask me.


Needless to say, I won't be bidding...!
