The next project?
«

So I found this bike and the guy is only "asking" $500 for it. Says that it has been sitting for a while. Says the motor turns over well, so I am guessing that it doesn't run but seems to just turn over without firing. I have my whole points assembly that I took off of my other bike that I put a Dyna S electronic ignition on plus the coils that I took off of it. So a free replacement there and something to help diag. It seems to be all there for the most part except for a side body panel which doesn't bother me. The tank has a little rust on the outside which doesn't bother me either since I have an uncle who can paint it for me, I just hope the inside isn't too bad. But the chrome and motor appear to be in decent shape. It has the 4 - 4 exhaust on it and if I don't like that I have the Mac 4-1 exhaust that I took off my bike. If I can get it for around $350 I figure I can't go wrong. So what do you guys think.

Looks like you'll need to use the fred flinstone method of stopping. Looks like a decent buy at $500 since it has a title.

That question shouldn't exist at $500, buy it , fix it or sell the parts to other members.
