Title: Junkyard run.
Post by: The Buddha on December 21, 2007, 11:08:14 AM
I am making a run to a new Junkyard ... I was there 2 weeks ago and I saw that he had Front end's off various GSXR/Kat/RF types.
I also saw 1-2 90-95 GSXR 750 type shocks.
Maybe other assorted mod junk too ...
No idea what any $$$ is ...
Does anyone want any of these and up to what $$. I may just give the number and contact name to you as well as the price they quote (in case its lower than your offered $$ - Yea right, Hell is frozen you say, and the devil lives there you say, and he's mad that its out of order ) so you can buy it for that ...
Anyway some FE's I would recognise and not let them know so you could get it cheaper cos they dunno what it is. Like my GR motor I bought for $20. OK OK its not running and isn't quite even salvageable without a new piston which is unavailable. But its damn close to rebuildable ...
Cool.
Srinath.

Ya, if you find a rear kat shock I'll bite.

Oh, and if you come across a '90's nighthawk 750 black in color with the stock wheels and .... ok, any 90's nighthawk 750 will do. ;)

Ya, I know, heavy, honda  and overpriced. They really sound niiiiice though.

Swap the bars with clipons, the 4 into 2 exahaust with a 4 into 4, paint it flat black and then it LOOKS good, too.

If you come across a CB550F in there somewhere, I need some headlight ears,  a decent seat (pan is what I need really) and the black metal parts with the buttons for controls.  possibly mirrors.  but only if pricing is reasonable on parts.
