1979 honda z50r dirt bike

I could pick it up and ship it if anyone was interested.

I called and he wouldn't take less than $500.

That rear fender is ginormous.

Rust is an upgrade? Worth 15 extra mph???

The only thing I can see that isn't stock is the airbox and exhaust.

with a fender like that you could get an extended swinger and the wheel wouldn't look likes it pushed towards the back of the fender.

I think the fender is bent from someone looping out. Because the angle is wrong it looks the way it does.

the bent fender is a good thing it drafts the air better and the rust makes it light so it goes faster, then the faster speeds allow more air to flow into the spark plug for better valve manipulation thus making it go 15 mph faster.
