this has got to be the best deal i have ever gotten. i just picked up a blasty for $40 yea not a typo $40!!! complete rolling chassis minus rear brakes, no front brake cables or lever, no clutch lever, right foot peg is a piece of steel welded to the mount, and no top end. but the bottom end is still good. all the suspension bushings are still tight, good carrier bearings chain is good came with stock pipe wheels and tires...best $40 i have ever spent hands down!! I:I ive already got a bunch of parts lined up for either free or next to nothing including a brand new vitos 240 kit with fat bastard pipe and 34 mil carb..i plan on having it done within a month or two. ill deffinatly post updates and pics as i make progress.
