    My brother got me this bike as a Christmas present, but I am moving soon for work and won't have room to work on this bike and put it on the road. When he first got the bike he hooked it up to a battery (none included), sprayed some fuel into the carbs and got it to fire. It has about 13k miles according to the odometer. It has a 4 into 1 exhaust that is beat up on the bottom like they get. It needs new tires and some of the stitching on the seat has come undone. All of the cables and levers feel good. The tank will need to be cleaned and the carbs should be rebuilt. Lastly, this bike does not come with a title, but that is only because the guy my brother got it from lost the title and never registered it in his name (he lived in the middle of nowhere and just took the bike out occasionally). This would either be a GREAT parts bike or a perfect project to put on the road this summer. The bike is located in Elkhart, Indiana. I will get pictures tomorrow when it is light out. I move for good in 2 weeks and will be spending my weekends on the road to get things moved to my new place, but we can work something out on the timing. I really don't know what the bike is worth to the right person, I would like to try and get $250 out of it, I have a box of spare parts (starter, wiring, carb boots) that I got off of ebay just for easy maintenance that will be included.

    Thanks!
