Yeah I saw your post about it. I actually saw the craigslist add the day it came out but was running a little short on cash. I figured it was gone by now. $ 900 was there bottom dollar the mechanic did not even know they were gonna sell it for that he was wanting it to but I was standing there with the cash. 2nd gear sounds like hell I am sure its a true bad 2nd.
Still trying to make up my mind. I will let you know first. I have actually found some trans parts pretty cheap but I still will probably be better breaking it up. I am gonna take the back rest & the scoops down & have them powder coated tehn trade them out with the ones on Christines bike.
As of right now its probably in your favor. I think by the time I fixed the transmission ,recovered the seat ,fixed the paint on the front fender & done a lot of cleaning I would not make much on it trying to resell. I might fix the trans even if I part it out just in case some one want s to buy a good engine with no issues.
I really want to do a project but rarely have time to work on stuff I want to. Some one said something about a cafe bike which has been in my mind for quite some time and a chopper to. I already have plans for both but not much time for my self.
