    short story: I bought this bike last year in a non running state but it turned out that with a carb cleaning the bike started and drove. Although the bike drove it was running rough. The idle was all over the place so I assume it needs the vales adjusted but I could never gt the suckers out so that was never done. The front brake was in bad shape and was always braking so I replaced the line with a stainless steel line, cleaned out the the caliper and rubilt it, and put on a new aftermarket master cylinder. I also replaced the front and rear bearings over the winter. It might not sound like it was a lot of work but this was my first bike and after doing all that work and the bike still not in a good running state I'm just too frustrated and out of money so I'm selling.

    I don't even know what it's worth so if you're at all interested just make an offer. You're gonna want a truck orr trailer.

    Good:
    New brake line
    rebuilt caliper
    new master cylinder
    new brake pads front and rear
    new bearings front and rear
    new used carb boots

    Bad:
    Very hard to start
    Needs valves adjusted
    Needs a new gas and vacuum line
    Probably needs carbs synced

    Hi...i'm looking for a parts bike in DC, and don't want to insult you with a parts bike price offer, but that's all it's worth to me in the condition you describe. Please give me an idea of how much you're looking for.

    Thanks!
