    So I'm out in garage looking at the 100$ bike , and thought the guy that bought this bike new what did he feel. Did he buy it because he really liked it , or price , brand loyalty, or all of these. He probably road it like he stole it ( keep wondering if this is stolen) . Did he keep it washed and waxed , keep the oil changed . Valves adjusted , and plugs and air filter changed , all things to wonder . I also wonder why was it dropped off at the guys shop , bike had no cluster, carbs, and battery, missing relays , the forks were rusty and are flat , no front brake at lever, rear brake way over tightened , tires were flat , rear brake light stuck on no gas tank or side covers. Put my spare set of carbs, hooked up a car battery and put a spare cluster on got bike to start and run , the neutral light was out , replaced switch , replaced rear brake switch , replaced stator so now charges , installed headlight bucket and got headlight all put back together. My last seca I rebuilt was another 100$ purchase at a swap meet that one I had a title for and got it road worthy, I should have kept it but sold it on . I just don't know I don't have the same vibe with this one , soon I hope it will be warmer and I can pull out old yellow and ride should I save it or just part it out decisions, decisions
