OK...a friend offered me her bike as she is desperate for money and it's what I want. Wife said yes, IF you clean up the garage

Bike #1

EX500 streetfighter. ridden almost daily. approx 20,000 miles and looking a little rough. But runs very good.

Not super fast, but no slouch. Great 1st bike and great little commuter

GRM price? $500. Tires/Chain/Plugs/etc all new in last 12 months.

Bike #2

1985 RM125. All plastics included. DG Pipe and silencer. very nice condition for it's age. $500 as well?

Sled

1990 Skidoo with a 462cc liquid cooled, oil injected. Cosmetically a little beat up, but a great fishing and work machine $450?

I was originally thinking of hitching a ride up there and riding it back, but I don't really have the gear for that.

Borrowing a buddy's truck seems like a far better solution.

Let me try and line a couple things up...

New bike looks good....I might be interested in the old sled, if I can get there and get it back.

What would it take? Dave & Cindy visiting? I've heard they have the time :)

That would sure make it easier to convince the Mrs. that we need to visit Michigan!

Well...on the bright side...at least it motivated me to try harder to sell a couple of projects that weren't going anywhere anyway (Going to show the AE72 Corolla in a few minutes.
