today's

Got a call from a buddy who I knew had some bikes. He told me he wanted them out of his garage so he could work on his hot rod. Buck and I drove out and pulled them out after 10 years of storage. They all came from a swap meet he went to in South Dakota. One is a Doodle bug--complete, a Herters...

Got the motor off of my dad's trail ram today. She is getting freshened up as well.

Getting the winter blues....finally have some room to tinker so I took the motor off the bronc today....iam going to freshen it up :scooter:

Went out to my secret engine picking spot today to see what I could find. I got this H60 engine along with 5 air cleaners, 3 carbs and 5 new in box air filters. All for $50.

Just thought I'd try and lighten the mood around here a little.....:laugh::laugh:

I partially untwisted a drill bit.

Brought these little guys home tonight. Two 1980 Honda C70s. The VINs are a few hundred units apart, but the license plates are sequential. They're just really nice bikes. The front basket has been taken off of one, but I have it. Neither one appears to have ever been dropped. Each has its...

Probably got the CL minibike reply of a lifetime today after arriving home from work. Called the owner immediately and talked money and made the drive down. I walk with him out to a semi trailer in the yard and inside were two Skat Kitty's and a side car. He said he is the original owner...

I was at work today and the bosses brother showed up. He said he had some motors to unload that he bought at a towns garage sales. I said o yeah? Lets see them. I bought a 5hp and a 3.5?hp briggs from him awhile back for 20 bucks a piece. :thumbsup: To say the least these were cheap. He made 12...

Went riding with my son today, were in the wood a few miles and stopped for a break, tried to get off the trail and my son's chain on his kart snaps, turns out he rode right up on a rock, didn't realize it and thinking it was just dirt he floored it, pop goes the chain Another fun rescue...

picked this up in Long Island for $80, does anybody have an idea about what is it?

1975 Yamaha RD350. I've been looking for the right one for more than a year. I can't wait for it to arrive. It's coming all the way from Ohio.

I just pick these up today after a weekend with no success of finding anything.. I know what the obvious two are but that third one is a :shrug::confused: to me.. Anyway, here's some pictures. The Powell serial# is 4205-D

Booked a load of sheet metal to Sioux Falls, SD yesterday for for delivery today. So I scan Craigslist in Sioux Falls for something to buy to make a buck on (or collect). Well, stumbled upon this Super Bronc. Really dont need or want another Super Bronc but this one had the snow ski with it...

Today the Mini Bike God's were smiling on me big time. Got an Awesome Montgomery Wards XE525 that still has the original Tires, Hand grips, Seat, Brakes and 2 speed clutch for a decent price. The motor is stuck, have not checked that out yet. Doesn't matter if it's dead as I have 2 Tech...

There had been a big bike on OKC CL that had been built quite long ago from square tubing and had Piper Aircraft tires and Imiron pain. I went to look at it and it was cool but not $175 firm cool although the jackshaft, wheels, hubs etc. were very cool and it aint going anywhere. The deal on...

Any suggestions? The 2 holes are from a chain stay that I have and it's way too tall to fit in there. Is there any way to cut the plate without a torch? Thanx B

Hit up the local auto parts swap meet this morning. My buddy was trying to haggle some guy on a tiff mower he wanted the engine off of. Meanwhile I struck up a conversation with a guy at a couple booths down who mentioned he had "some old engines" under his trailer. Stopped at his place a few...

I'm finally 15. Heres a pic of none other than the Birthday Boy himself.

This is my first purchase of a Bonanza of this kind and I'm extremely excited about it! I've seen them before in pictures and thought they were really,really nice and super cool but I never thought I would own one. Now that I do, I could'nt be more happier!:biggrin: Here's some pictures....
