Last night I made another trip out to see the guy I bought the CB450 and XR100 from earlier. He is in the garage cleaning mood and fortunately I am around to help!
For $100 I bought:
2 motocross bikes (a Yamaha and a Suzuki, both needing major attention)
a 1971 Suzuki TM125 motocross frame, engine block and transmission.
a Yamaha XS650 (unrunning, looking like a boat anchor, but maybe there are possibilities?)
a Yamaha 100 cc dirt bike (another non running bike, missing a seat and tank)
Around 25 gently used motocross tires. (he had been a racer, and usually ran his tires for 1 or 2 heats at the most, then they would go into his garage)
4 aluminum dirt bike racing wheels (front and rear)
Around 10 pairs of motocross racing handlebars, none bent.
Assorted bike hardware (sprockets, new brake pads, rotors, brake discs; too much to list)
Two sets of chest protectors, other racing gear.
It is no coincidence that I waited until my wife was out of town for the week on business before I did this deal! Even though she knew I was about to go back out there, I don't think that she had any idea how much stuff I was bringing back.
My poor shed is going to be overwhelmed very soon.
I can't believe how cheap some people unload stuff for. I only wish that there was no bottom to this well!
