showed up with a piece of glass
Quote:
I got out of the car , reached over for a 12 inch piece of glass. Talked to this guy and he said it wasn't bent and it was. Look at one of the pics and you will see a wave on the brace. The forks are off too... straight glass and bubble level will never lie. 37/11 final drive Think the trans is shot. He left the boot off since he changed over to a speedo only. Left the vent hole open and he didn't even knew why/what that vent was for. Missing the gages/ chopped the wiring. Gas tank was dented with the triple tree fro FZR. The brakelines are questionable . Fuel lines were off and tank was drained.. but smelled like paint thinner. He will some sucker to but it. Nice thing were the rims. If I purchased it .. I would have taken the shock mounts and improved on it. The rear sets were nice .. SO MUCH WRONG WITH THIS BIKE.

I'm surprised he hasn't seen the post yet. I will give him a ring.

My ears were burning. I've looked at this thread 4-5 times today looking at different parts of the bike and it does not look familiar. There was a similar bike built in the early 90's by a dirt bag that would come around the shop looking for cheap parts and free advice but I don't know if he ever finished it. He is serving a life sentence so I would not know how to ask him.
