Fuel line safety.
I think I would reroute this fuel line. Look a little unsafe to me!

dont worry about the fuel hose. The throttle is held in place by a vise grip for quick engine removal. And the wires form a protective net in case of a heavy crank case explosion.

How could you even think of trying to sell it on Ebay in that condition? It is listed as in "GOOD" condition!
I dont know, maybe if it goes for the $1,100 that it is right now, maybe it is worth it. Says it has aluminum heads. Maybe they are just painted with aluminum paint color. Hmmmm

No, the visegrips are a safty feature. In case of fire, simply pinch the fuel line closed.
