Hi,
My name is Tyler. I just bought a 1973 X-90 for $275. Doesn't currently run and is missing a few things. If anyone has any extra parts I'd like to hear from you.

Hi Tyler. You're in for a lot of fun and adventure with your X-90. About eight years ago I picked up a 1976 Aermacchi Harley-Davidson SS-250 for $600 on Ebay. It didn't run and was actually a piece of junk that I couldn't even bring myself to sell to someone else. I don't even think it was worth parting out. Finally, after sitting in the garage for about a year, a friend and I spent five years and about $6000 to restore it to museum quality. From a "dollar" standpoint it was a waste of money but from a satisfaction standpoint it was a great experience. It won 1st Place in the only two judged shows it was in and earlier this year I sold it to a collector. It was really fun to ride that 2-cycle "wing-dinger" down to my local Harley dealer and show it off.
