Newest find 15 Parts Bikes, NOS Parts Honda, Suzuki and Bridgestone
« on: October 11, 2005, 07:57:10 PM »
I went out to look at a lot of bikes tonight. This guy was breaking my heart. :'( There was nothing super great as far as riding bikes go, but the was a MOTHERLOAD :o of parts. Like I would have to load and run for two days to get it all home. And he only lives 10 minutes from me!

There is about 15 bikes in various states of disrepair. Stuff ranging in size from 90cc-750cc. TONS of good parts. About 75% of the motors are rotaters not potaters! All of this stuff is 70-77 roughly. Plus he bought out a closing motorcycle shop here and has lots of N.O.S. parts for Honda, Suzuki, and Bridgestone! Tanks and exhaust hung on the wall like fresh kills in his barn. I think I saw some  :o :o N.O.S. CB 750 exhaust :o :o? I know.. the holy freakin grail of parts. I may have been mistaken in my dizzy delusion. Anyway the guy wants like $800 for the whole mess. I could fill my garage with stuff and do the mad panick to part it all out fast enough to get my shop back. I might get some floor space sometime in March LOL ::).

Now I am just tryin to come up with the $800 or something close. I would not have to buy anything again until mid summer.

I may need help. I just have to close a few deals to get the cash together. Better yet the wife didn't even scoff at the idea of this insanity. She said it would be a good investment ;D. I have a keeper.

Cool. Will be sending trailer over your place around midnight to help you.
 Look for broken headlights.

Just tell the guy the check is in the mail. Works with collection agencies.

Your wife sounds like mine, a keeper for sure (but I have to hide my bikes
up on the hill)

I have to hide them under "clean" if the chrome sparkles, it has a seat, and a tank it just might look good enough to have sit.

I bought something similar to your find last fall.


Everything in the pics for $500. There was a CB750K0 front end in there and that almost paid for half of the purchase right there.

It can be alot of work but you should be able to sell a few things off and in no time have what you bought it for paid off. Then still have so many parts laying around that you don't know what to do with them all.

Ok, everything motorcycle related. ;D

The dog is my sidecar pilot. If he hears the bike running he can be in that sidecar before I have it backed out of the garage.
