Anyone selling a used 747?

Ok, after a LONG time off I'm back on the pedals trying to get back into some shape other than round...
I have an old Trek 830 mtb I ressurected but I'd really like a multi purpose road bike. I'll be mostly on paved trails.
Everything I've read points me towards the XXL khs flite 747. It looks awesome, but unfortunately comes w a steep price tag. Any one of the inmates looking to upgrade their old units? Have one gathering dust that you'd sell used? Or do you have another option? I'm 6'5" and 295 so that's a factor! Thanks!

If you are looking for the xxl and not the xxxl there is a seller on Ebay selling them for $1095 shipped. Seems like a pretty good deal because they originally listed at $1800. At that price I thought about buying just to try out the long cranks.

Lennard Zinn's Web site.

Check Zinn's web site. He had some NOS 747s available. Maybe there is a used 747 there too.

I'll try that! I did find a leftover jumbo frame Cannondale quick 4 at a shop in a town I travel to. Looking forward to trying it out.
