I recently picked up what appears to be a Bug Flea? The owner has put a briggs 5hp on it, but gave me the original Continental "Red Seal 175cc" motor too. It is complete including the perfect gas tank with the original "Rubber Seal" gas cap and the original fiberglass clutch guard...etc.etc...The bike is straight and and missing only a few parts....

I keep trying to sell stuff, but only keep buying more....LOL

the seller loves you bryon, i didnt know it was an auction, he took double the asking price he said. you were bidding against yourself! the rest of us were only offering to just give him his 200:thumbsup:

Thanks guys, I have looked for one of these for a very long time. When it popped up I knew it was worth more and secured the deal immediately. I was fair with the seller and he was fair with me...and lots of extra parts for other bikes too.

The seller has since emailed me regarding you James and said to say THANK YOU for the compliments!? Perhaps it would be best to keep my name out of your conversations with sellers and also not to piss off sellers, as you never know what else they have?:smile:

i never met a more rude and nasty guy! he made accusations of me lowballing him? wtf! i offered only to buy the item at his asking price and only got a bunch of rude remarks from him. he must have confused me with other guys.

so f**k him and his sh"t im sorry if dont like it, your name may have been brought up and i never said anything bad about you. i spent twenty minutes emailing him pics of other bikes and all he did was call me a lowballer.
if he has a problem or you have a problem, you give me a call

Hey James just for the record he and his wife were very nice sweet old people with great stories. He is also very very ill with cancer, hence the reason to sell some things to pay bills. Also someone else offered him a bid of $500 while I was driving down to pick it up Saturday? Just another one of the guys I guess...

I learned a long time ago that here in southern California if you want something you have to go get it, otherwise one of the sharks will beat you to it...I guess I was the hungry shark on this one. And besides you already have like 5-6 Bug Fleas? LOL
