    lol tell me about it, with like 100 bucks you could fix it up, sand the tanks and stuff down and jsut spray it with a can of spray paint. then there you have a beat on bike and still can use it for parts.... you may wish to buy it tho, cuz i imagine the carbs will got for 100 buck on ebay, the motor 200.. its too bad its missing thsoe covers cuz those are 50 ea lol

    Ah, good old K-zoo. You know the place has a confidence problem when you see signs that say "Yes, there really IS a Kalamazoo"... posted around downtown Kalamazoo. I know GM pulled up and left. Is Upjohn still there?

    (Yes, I used to live there... why do you ask?)

    You couldn't fix that bike for a hundred dollars.
    Tires and a Battery are going to run you close to 3-Bills or more.
    No Title?
    Who wants to go through that hassle?
    Nobody; for a non-runner.

    There's got to be a good reason that bike was parked and forgot about.
    Whatever it is ... (after looking at the pix) ... I bet it ain't something simple.
    That deal just has a very funny-sounding and funny-looking aspect to it that makes me think that there's something off-kilter about it.

    Nobody else got that impression?

    o did, but the fact he didnt email me back with the vin number so i could get a vin search done makes me think it might be stolen. i thought requwsting a vin number wasnt asking too much.
