Is the Pope a Catholic? Are the Kennedy's Gun-shy? Do the bears schidt in the woods? Am I a loud mouthed alcoholic?
Ha ha, yeah mate, I need a good engine for my '77 naked, 40 bucks is an amazing price, but I wonder if they're any good? I'm thinking that the shipping might kill the deal though, the 1200 engine I bought for 600 from Michigan ended up costing $2000 with shipping and a heap of other bullschidt charges. Luckily it was in perfect condition, but I'd hate to gamble 1400 bucks and end up with a dud?
The engine I pulled out of mine was still running on all 4, not blowing smoke and was quiet, but it had a "knock" due to ruined main and big end bearings caused by the previous owner neglecting to do an oil and filter change in 10 years and maybe 90,000 miles? I'm thinking that I might be better off cracking the cases and doing a rebuild, then I'll only need to import some carbs (probably Murray Feldman's Mikuni conversion) an exhaust system and some other cosmetic parts? Those 40 buck engines sure are tempting though, are you gonna go take a look at them? Cheers, Terry.
