Final Answer :
A contract for the sale of goods where the sales price exceeds $500 must be written and signed to be legally enforceable.There is an exception for specially manufactured goods made for the buyer that are not suitable for sale to others in the ordinary course of business.The question is unclear as to what extent Big Choppers is able to sell this motorcycle to another customer.Thus,the oral contract may or may not be binding,depending on the ability of Big Choppers to sell it to another.
