Description

HEY GUYS AND GALS. GOT HERE FOR SALE 2 HARD TO FIND RV TRACKERS.

BOTH OF THESE BIKES WERE JUST RESCUED FROM A LONG SLEEP IN A SHED UP HERE IN MONTANA.

WE'RE NOT PRO'S AT THE RESTORATION LEVEL. JUST HAVE A FONDNESS FOR EARLY VINTAGE JAPANESE BIKES.

ALL WE DO WITH THEM IS BRING EM HOME. AND TRY OUR BEST TO BRING THEM BACK TO LIFE. nbsp;DO A PARTIAL DISASSEMBLY TO CLEAN UP AND ATTEMPT TO GET THEM RUNNING AND DRIVING AGAIN.   THAT IS WHAT HAS BEEN DONE TO 1 OF THESE BIKES.

HERE GOES:

#1 1973 GREEN BIKE. THIS IS THE BETTER OF THE 2. THE FIRST THING WE DO IS THROW A FRESH BATTERY TO THEM TO SEE IF THE BIKE HAS SPARK. WHICH THIS ONE DID. OUR PHILOSOPY IS IF IT FIRES IT WILL RUN. SO OVER THE COURSE OF 2 WEEKS WE DID OUR THING.

HERES A LIST OF WHAT WE DID.

PARTIAL DISASSEMBLY SO WE CAN.

FLUSH AND CLEAN FUEL AND OIL TANK. AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY.

NEW FUEL LINES.

CLEAN. NOT REBUILD CARB. MOST TIMES THATS ALL NEEDED.

DEGREASE AND POWER WASHED BIKE.

HAD SEAT REBUILT AND NEW REPRODUCTION SEAT COVER.

NEW HANDLE GRIPS

PAINTED EXHAUST PIPE WITH HEAT PAINT.

NEW BATTERY.

TIRES ARE DECENT

CHAIN REMOVED SOAKED IN DEGREASER. CLEANED AND RELUBED

CLEAR TITLE

WITH A NEW PLUG. FRESH GAS AND OIL THIS LITTLE FAT HOG STARTED ON THE 3RD KICK.

HAVE RUN THE BIKE AROUND OUR PROPERTY FOR LAST COUPLE WEEKS. STARTS RIGHT UP. PROBLEM IS WE CAN 'T GET IT TO SIT AND IDLE. NOT KNOWING MUCH ABOUT 2 STROKE BIKES. NOT THAT THERE SHOULD BE MUCH DIFFERENCE TO A 4 STROKE. KINDA THINKING MAYBE A CARB REBUILD MIGHT BE WHAT IT NEEDS.

RIDING IT THE CLUTCH AND GEARS ALL WORKED GREAT.

WE ALSO DON'T GET INTO THE WIRING TO MUCH. SO FAR THE ONLY LIGHT WORKING IS REAR BRAKE LITE.   MORE THAN LIKILY SYSTEM NEEDS CONNECTIONS AND GROUNDS CLEANED.

ALSO AS SHOWN IN PICTURES NEEDS A HEADLITE LENS AND BULB.

WE KEPT THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO ON BIKE TO SHOW ORIGINAL MILES OF 1000. LENS IS BROKE. MORE ON THAT LATER.

TO US BIKE IS A NICE ORIGINAL CLASSIC. COULD BE RIDDEN AS-IS OR IS A GREAT START FOR A RESTORATION. WE LIKE EM THIS.

#2 1974 YELLOW BIKE

BASICALLY A PRETTY COMPLETE PARTS BIKE

THE ONLY PARTS MISSING ARE WHAT WE TOOK OFF TO FIX UP THE OTHER BIKE.

THE SPEEDO ON THIS BIKE IS GOOD SHOWS 7000. THATS THE REASON WE DIDN'T SWAP OUT

MOTOR IS LOCKED UP. DIDN'T TRY TO LOOSEN UP. JUST CONSIDER IT A GOOD GO TO PARTS BIKE. OR PART OUT. LOOKING ON EBAY  PARTS FOR THESE BIKES BRING PRETTY GOOD MONEY.

THERE'S A LOT OF HONDA FAT CATS AND YAMAHA BIG WHEELS AROUND NOT TOO MANY OF THESE RV'S

NO THE FUGLY PART. PAY ANYWAY YOU WANT. PERSONAL CHECK. BANKCHECK. DOESN'T MATTER. BIKES DON'T LEAVE ME UNTIL FUNDS HAVE CLEARED MY BANK.

MUST BE PAID IN FULL WITHIN 7 DAYS.

BIKES CAN SIT FOR 30 DAYS FOR SHIPPING. AFTER THAT STORAGE OF $5 A DAY KICKS IN. SORRY ABOUT THAT. BUT PEOPLE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME. I USED TO LET THEM SIT THEN THEY WOULD GO 6 MONTHS. NO MORE.

AS FAR AS SHIPPING WE WON'T DEAL WITH BROKERS. JUST AS THEIR NAME SAYS. BROKEN PROMISES FOR PICKUP. WE LIVE ON A VERY ACCESSABLE ROAD. WE WON'T BRING THEM TO THE DRIVER. THEY BOOK EM. THEN THEY NEED TO PICK EM UP.

OTHER THAN THAT YOU CAN CALL ME AT 302-275-1910 WITH ANY QUESTIONS. THANKS FOR LOOKING
