How's my brace doing?? I hope he finishes it before I spend the money on something else, lol/ Just got off the phone w/ BillyC from the BBS about spiffing up my carbs.



TJWOR - Gas tank and pipes are available!

how much with shipping to 67456?

[Sebspeed]

No idea, probably not cheap given the size and weight.

[tjwor]

Anyway you can get a quote on those two?

Also, do you have the Ignition Coils? Mine were replaced by a previous owner and i'd like to go back to stock...

Also the CDI if you still have those parts! Give me a total that you would need!

[Sebspeed]

Yup, I have all that, what coils do you have in the bike now? I may consider a trade, if it's anything special.

EDIT: $50 shipped for the CDI boxes, coils and wires via USPS Priority Flat Rate box.

if all goes well with payday this week I may try and get that solenoid and cooling fan this friday otherwise next friday for sure. If thats ok with you

[mls03jbody]

as you can probably tell from my pic I am in desperite need of a seat (black duct tape kinda sticks out)

[Sebspeed]

Motor, seat, side panels, fuel pump, carbs, L rear signal, petcock, tank rubber, gone. The rest is still here(and needs to go!!).

This stuff will go cheap, I need it gone! Check the classifieds!

How do the fork seals look on it? are the rims straight? How much would shipping and you want for the solenoid, cooling fan, entire bare forks and both rims with rotors? if its in the 100 ballpark I'm sold for all of it. 47909 or I could meet part way or if you really want to get rid of it that bad I'll take the rest for the hundred and meet you half way. I'm in NW Indiana.

[mls03jbody]

can you get some updated pics of whats left though, please?

[Sebspeed]

I'd sell you most of that for $100, but the shipping is probably going to be another $100 on items that big and heavy!

Putting gas in my truck will cost 3-4 times that... I am in NY.

The fork seals are shot, and there is a small amount of rust starting on the tubes, but the rest looks fine. Wheels are good, as are the rotors. Fan & solenoid should be good too.

[mls03jbody]

I suppose the forks wouldn't really help me then. So all I really need is the rims, fan, and solenoid. If you still had the side covers I'd say them too. But thats ok. Can you shoot me a total with both rims, rotors, with or with out tires, fan and solenoid, to 47909. And hopefully I will get it all soon. My work has been having a slow period right now but I really need all that stuff. Thanks.

[mls03jbody]

I think I'm ready to get the solenoid and fan from you now and the rims will have to wait. I'm getting tired of having to start the bike with a screwdriver cuz my solenoid is bad. People kinda look at me funny. Anyways please send me a total for these plus shipp to 47909. Also let me know how to send payment. Thanks

If the deal for the exhaust falls through I could use the Mufflers provided they aren't rusted/rotted.

[Sebspeed]

Mufflers are available, I replied to your PM.

[Sebspeed]

Still have parts...

[zedona]

did you sell the tank?

[Sebspeed]

Tank is still here. Rusty inside, but it seems there is a thread about removing it right now...(My science project).

I am going on vacation this Friday and will not be back until the following weekend(after the 4th).

[mls03jbody]

sorry its be so long about that solenoid let me know if you still got it and cost with shipping to 47909 thanks I found that the cooling fan was ok
