Yikes. Normally, I wouldn't want to crap on something that someone put love and time into, as everyone has to start somewhere.

But asking $9500 for a high school shop project bolted to a corroded motor shows a serious lack of self-awareness. I admire how he turns a bug into a feature by saying, "Some options left to customize if desired as a project."

Absolutely one of a kind, indeed...

Equally perplexing is the fact that the padding on the back of the seat is recessed into the wood, rendering it useless for all but the most microscopically posteriored rider...

Zooming in on any photo does not reveal new levels of attention to detail. Instead, it reveals a rusty frame, corroded motor and forks, possible electrical tape on the plug cap, 'custom grips' held on with a plastic zip tie, peeling veneer, nothing measured but rather eyeballed (read: cockeyed), and the simple reinforcement of the concept that making a vehicle that is exposed to the elements out of leather and wood is a bad idea, hence why nobody does it...

I don't even know where to start with that.

How does it turn? Does it turn? Is that why it only has 200 km?

And why is the seat a crate? The rest is done up, well, I hesitate to say nicely, but it's shiny.

Why is there a picture of people riding on a different bike?
 
I know usually we post regular people but dealerships have stupidly overpriced too:

Not only is it 4 years old, and the previous generation, but its also used, would be fairly priced at 8k, not so much at 11.6
