A couple caught my attention.
2004 for $1200?
1993 $1200 obo with low mileage AND has original belly pan and cowling. Seems you could part it out for much more if things are in good shape. Just don't like seeing the rust on the 2 bolts holding the instrument cluster. Must have been stored outside?
2007 too much but for under $1800 could be patched up like new and then got for $2500+ (I have extra 2009 upper cowling, levers, bar ends and slip on muffler. Just that small dent in the tank. Side fairing can be touched up or replaced.)
Forget the $150 parts bike - states won't title it so obviously stolen or wanted by collection agency
Should I get a 3rd bike or one to part out (which would help pay for the work I did on Junior)?
wow i am jealous of those prices. i wish i could find such prices in the sf bay area.
I always see deals in the rest of the country. First weekend I've seen deals here - if they are really good deals.
I have spare room and work space. Fly up and drive one home!
Junior is almost done and I will feel a void of no project to work on so I'm tempted....
I've emailed the guy with the parts bike twice now with no response. I guess he doesn't want to sell it bad enough :dunno_black:
Plus, the guy in Bellevue has come down from 1800 to 1200 :icon_exclaim:
hey, that red one for 1,400 is my old bike. I sold it to him with no engine. I actually made that exhaust and jetted the carbs. I get no credit? :tongue2:

I'm assuming you made a flange for the yoshi? If so, can you make some more?

no flange. It was a $20 can I got from ebay that was off a Ninja. I used some pipes I had lying around and welded up the headers so that the can "slips" on. It didn't work with the rear pegs so I cut them off. Notice the pics in his ad it has no rear pegs.
