New guy in Arkansas

[reitenger]

I just picked up a '93 blaster that needs quite a bit of work. New axle, new axle carrier (guess the old owner couldn't figure out what the noise was), tires, some motor work.

Otherwise its a pretty clean bike. Couldn't pass on the price, 2 boxes of .45 ammo. Thank God for ebay. I should have most of the parts I need here in a week. Plan is to get it together run it a little, then tear it apart and build it to suit me.

I have an older 250R from the 3 wheel days and have been in the market for a nice big red for a while.

congrats on the pick-up man! so wait... you traded 2 boxes of ammo for the bike?

 

[runumhard]

wow thats a deal.........

 

[reitenger]

We'll see if its a deal by the time I get it finished. Yep, 100rds of .45 ammo At least the plastic and seat are good (even if they are purple and black). We'll see where I stand on parts as soon as a few things on ebay finish. I found the 250R sitting out with the trash on big item pick up day a couple of years ago. It was a bare frame with the rest of it in a few boxes. It was all there, just had to buy a few things - $140 worth and it runs like a beast.

I am just south of Benton. I should be good there. I need a carrier and axle. Should have a couple off of ebay in the next day or two. Grabbing a spare to build a mini indy car I have been sitting on for a couple of years.

Where are you located?

Just moved here from Colorado, but actually grew up in Batesville
