    1968 Rupp XL-500 - What's it worth?

    Welcome to the site. Like many others before you, they acquire a cool old bike and want to know the value. That is a very popular inquiry here, however, it is "against the rules", and for good reason. It literally is worth what someone is willing to pay. With that said, you have a very...

    72 Arctic Cat Prowler... starting from not much!

    Yep it appears to be a Ramrod/Screamer/Climber sprocket. I dont think the little 47cc sachs has enough grunt to take advantage of the larger rear sprocket gearing, but I'd be interested to hear how it does. You'll find out how pretty quick! That antenna does have that 70's van vibe. I now...

    I have a nice original seat from an Arctic Cat Climber that I may part with if your interested. It has the look to match your bikes patina. You can buy the correct petcock on ebay, or many others will work too. Same with the grips. You can get nice reproduction brake cables from Blackwidow...

    The honda recoil might be a good fit with your Mad Max theme. It's probably more durable than the Sachs recoil too. What else do you need for the bike? Did you get the seat situation figured out?
