what are you looking for? budget?

Not dead set on anything but would prefer a nice solid roller vintage bike that I can throw a Honda GX200 on. I know I can get an Azusa roller brand new for around 300 but not sure on quality for an adult that is 6'2" 215 to ride.

I would consider anything really. Feel free to send me a PM with what you got.

Where did you find "an Azusa roller brand new for around 300"? The prices I have seen start at over 400 and that is only for the small 5" wheels. For your size, you will find the Azusa frame really small and uncomfortable.

On the interweb of course-
Azusa Mini Bike Kit

My neighbor thought he could relive his (chequered) past with one of these. Piece of excrement IMO. Can't even fit a 212 w/tank attached. Squirly at speed and, yes, uncomfortable as hell.

Anyone else looking to part with something in SE Michigan?

Ideally looking for a solid vintage roller that would fit someone 6'2"

Open to suggestions on make/model

100% agreed , however way to small and not comfortable for the OP.
