Looks like he's kept the motor probably for an unrideable chopper |

The ironic thing is he robbed the motor to build a streetfighter ...............hasn't anybody told him Buell built the best streetfighters ever. |

He looks like he is keeping the VIN too from the listing for the frame... Shame, that bike had Erik's autograph on the screen... kevmean wrote: The ironic thing is he robbed the motor to build a streetfighter ...............hasn't anybody told him Buell built the best streetfighters ever. And that the oil pump gear and gearbox output shaft bearing are probably on their last legs... |

Relax Peeps, it's only a motorbike! And a 'Bic' of a motorbike at that....  At least its parts may help someone else to keep their beloved bike on the road, which in my opinion is better than it just being left to rot, unloved, in a shed. The time will come when we will all be glad of a part from a broken bike... |

Sad Dunno if it still happens, but I've heard that on some models a breaker would buy a new bike to break, such was the demand and therefore profit to be made... |

Has to be about supply and demand, but some sellers on Ebay seem to think that some secondhand parts masquerading as piles of excrement, can bring big money . Suppose it only needs one punter stuck for a bit and the cash register has rung . |
