This just looks like a bad idea, but the engine might be worth the money for someone. https://www.facebook.com/commerce/listing/1003564054535099/?ref=share_attachment

Not sure it's a bargain, or even reasonably priced... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/993407956105371/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks But it's rare and pretty cool, and of course completely impractical.

I keep the receipts for parts etc. and note the mileage when the work was done.

It is, but I think he was referring to the one that was on 35 at Orno. It's also long gone. The building is still there and was opened as a pub for a few months.

Did you mean to type blow it UP?

Well at least you're getting attention. Maybe that means a real buyer will come along.

Speaking of seals you recommended SSS Suspension (Joe) to me a while back for servicing/rebuilding the rear shock on my KTM 1090R. THANK YOU!! It was a GREAT recommendation. Joe did the work very quickly and at a very reasonable price. Relating to the fork seal discussion: While chatting with...

I unloaded the 1982 BMW R100RS I bought in January. I had left it on the trailer to keep it out of the path of mice and it did. I also overloaded the building with agricultural grade poison bait and traps back then and will continue the bait. It's single feeding bait, so as long as they can't...

2 years ago at the Airport bike show I saw a customized HD along the lines of the one pictured. It was a showcase for the products that this company made and/or sold. I gotta say it was pretty cool....not cool enough for the money but cool.

I think it also matters WHAT bike you're selling and WHO you're selling it to. People on this forum are interested in specific types of MC. Whether it's off road, dual sport, adventure etc. we as a group don't need to be sold on a particular genre/model because we're looking for it. We may be...

I agree with Adri. What he's talking about isn't a little thing. The background in his first 2 pictures frame the bikes well and put them in a nice setting and it leads your eye to the bikes. The 3rd one focusses your eye on the bike immediately. When I looked at MP's ad I noted that the front...

Well said and a fair point. Having that FXR with modern brakes and decent suspension would have been cool, but I'd already decided that it wasn't really a rural road burner no matter what I did.

I know where you're coming from, but unless you can get the better suspension for free, have a money tree or have decided that the HD is a forever bike don't bother. I had a 1999 super glide, and I liked it for all the reasons you like your sportster. Metal, visceral, mechanical and fun in it's...

Lovely bike. I think dealers can be motivated to move on price, particularly in trying financial times. Inventory is only worth something when you sell it, and when you've got overhead and expenses you need to move product. A private seller, particularly with some brands can set a high price...

I saw an article somewhere about damage to phones from vibration when mounted to motorcycles. A vibration dampened mount is crucial I think if you're using your phone. Personally, I don't seem to take direction well. I tend to meander from place to place, only following a set route when...

it farted and coughed for a bit then ran fine." I do that every morning but nobody has a complimentary word for me.

I listened to an ADVRider podcast where Neil Graham and Michael Uhlarik were talking about the DRZ and its missing 6th gear. According to MU (I'm paraphrasing) engineering, designing and developing a transmission is the biggest issue with building a motorcycle. Many new and current bikes have...

I don't like wayze. Too often in Ottawa the route changes as we're heading to to Quebec. My wife likes it, so we'll try it next time.

The KTM 350/500's are most focused on off road performance, at the expense of on road comfort and higher maintenance. The DRZ competes with the KTM690's, and other more street friendly dual sports and have higher weight, more comfort through overall higher gearing and softer suspension, less...

Different bikes for different purposes really, though the DR is too expensive.
