& Dave its the maintenance that I like to look for as additional costs to get it up to snuff as most people wear it out then move it. I try to stay away from tweaker projects though cause its like buying a basket case, although I'd happily give $300 for a tweaker f**ked gs1100 again & again & again

basket cases are my favorate kind of bikes....   you know exactly what your getting.. its all layed out, piled up, spread around, for you to look at and inspect.. no surprises... (not like a box of chocolates)


dont knock the tweeker bikes... If I told you the things I have bought from tweekers.. You would hate me as much as Rooster and Doldguy.   like a pair of danny hamel seats for $20....   Norton with trick racy parts.. for $300  (was in really good shape actually)...   and so on..

That's funny, every now and then someone calls me and they sound very nervous...... "Um, I have this bike but, it's all taken apart. Um, you wouldn't want it would you?" I try not to laugh. Sure, we'll be happy to give it to 50 good homes or so :-D
