Topic: Now THIS is a motorcycle stash...

[Hush]

Ensuring spares for our old bikes for decades to come! 
Actually we might have to create our own site, Ebay would take too much profit, something like "SOHC4 PARTS WORLDWIDE".

 Ahhh.. the making a living working on bikes dream..


 I been living it for a few decades.. working at a cheaper rate than most other shops.. bending over backwards to help out on projects....

 seriously.. I do way better working at a job and doing this part time..

 If its for sale for 50K.. sounds like he cant make money at it..

 Alot of bike people with cheap bikes, want to pay as little as possible for stuff..ebay sucked the profit out of a lot of used parts selling.. in a storefront situation..

holy crap.  I actually saw at least MOST of my dream bike.  a CBR600F Hurricane.  those are pretty unmistakable to me.   

I just wish I had millions to go buy the whole place, SORT everything, and offer it to the right people.   theres literally more parts there than I could finish sorting by the time I turn 40, which is a solid 28 years from now.

This place is just a few miles south of the Baseball stadium downtwon, just Google Bob's Motorcycle's in PHX, AZ and it should pop up.

That being said, they do have the yard "organized" with Honda's in one section, Yama's in another, dirts and quads in another, etc.

Like somone mentioned before, great place to pick up metal bits, but awful for anything plastic or rubber.

Your best bet for parts is asking one of the grease monkeys roaming the yard for a part, they are usually more than willing to let you slip something in your pocket for a few dollars, versus paying the "whatever-i-feel-like-it" price the owner wants to charge you.

Although, carb rubber boots at $5 a piece was a bargain for me.

Look, there's a sand cast. And over there another. And there's a wrinkle tank. OMG I want to spend my vacation there.

I wonder how many times, someone has come back at dusk, and hopped the fence and took a head or something?

I was just wondering the same thing!
I kinda think someone is going to be disappointed when they figure out it's only 18 years until 40, not 28.

Wow, when I look at that stash all I see is mental illness.... good luck trying to have any dealings with the owner , don't ya think someone would have 'jumped' on it by now?.... probably impossible to buy, like the 1 bike rotting in someones yard for ever that you tried to buy; suddenly everyone in the house has an opinion on how much it's worth and how their going to 'fix it up', starting tomorrow, blah, blah, very sad
