Buddy brought this home today. An almost perfect putt to my eyes...

 

Yeah I'll say.

 

I hate to see friends of yours get burned on such junk. I would be willing to give you (your friend, actually) $500.00 just so he can keep his pride from being damaged!!

NICE BIKE!!! what else is lurking in that barn?

would love to see better pics!

 

Oh, man, so there's still hope!!

Nice find!

 

... and I hope your friend buys a lotto ticket tonight too; damn, today's his lucky day so strike when the iron is hot...

 

forget the ticket, I just bought the winner!

that bike is cool, but he's got to clean up all those lousy electrical wire terminals!! God, who did that wiring?

 

Nice ol`pan, got any details?
It would have been fun if it was an old barn find,, but that thing has a few modern doo-dadds tucked here an there don't it?

 

Same owner since 1969. Black plate, the works. Not exactly a barn, more like a shop, just sat in the back under a pile of junk. Bike hasn't run in 30+ years. My friend is a top-level wrench well known for his scooters. I doubt if he'll do anymore than get it running and clean up the riff-raff like the wiring.

 

Sooo...uummhhhh...do we dare ask the question?

 

I WILL, I WILL!!! how much did he pay?

or was it what kind of oil does it use?
