    So, like most of my projects, i bit off more than i could chew.

    i have a 1982 XJ750 that i was going to tear down and cut up to make something great but my wallet is limiting that.

    as it sits, i have the:
    frame
    engine without carbs mounting in frame
    wheels and tires mounted
    front forks mounted
    rear shock mounted

    things i dont have
    time
    money
    motivation
    brakes
    carbs
    exhaust
    wiring
    plumbing
    seat
    battery
    good looks

    not a clue what its worth but i know that i dont have the means or time to build it up how i want.

    no reasonable offer will be refused.
    or lowball, it probably wont be refused either.

    just saying.

    Inquiring minds want to know. What happened to the parts you pulled off?

    they got the cancer. it was torn down to be rebuilt and organized how i liked in the garage. my children decided that they would organize it themselves. then my wife "cleaned up" the mess. that means she just threw away all the things she couldn't identify. you know, carb, wiring, silencer, front fender. along with my headers from my truck i was powder coating.

    I'm looking for a good, cheap upper for tube. I understand about not splitting them up, but if you ever need to get rid of them, or if you find someone who only needs one, let me know. Or, maybe I should talk to your wife? :)

    everything is for sale. don't worry, i asked her. you can buy whatever you'd like, and i may throw in the whole rest of the bike.
