Re: Botm

[maybe a cap of say bikes with under $2000 invested w/o cost of the bike.

$2000!!!?? A beater is under $500! A mini your never too drunk to ride because if you crash it you'll never know. It will still look the same.

Is it a straight bolt-on or did you have to do lots of fabrication?

Re: Botm

This should be STEAL OF THE MONTH!
picked up this "short bus" for $350
it has some sweet orange plastics, bbr sp5s, sano frame, ishock, and a bbr big bar kit
it had an 88 race head kit on it but the rings were shot so i threw all my stock stuff on it with an 18mm carb and takegawa rev box.

i added a sweet custom seat cover, chain roller, and i cut and polished the sidecase

SHE RUNS LIKE A CHAMP!


HOW ABOUT THAT STEAL!
