Ah, I see what it is now. Thanks Birdsnest. I've had no personal experience with this type and I'd most likely pass. Different motor that I expected! (it has a belt)

Here's a decent one. I thought that stripe on the fender meant they were a special edition or something. Rally?

Either an aftermarket sticker or remnants of an aftermarket embellishment made by Utah IIRC. Someone correct me on the company that made those if needed.

Interesting. Figured it may be upbadging but not familiar.

This looks a little scammy, and the one photo offers very little detail, but who knows. I wanna know more about the Ape.

Looks like 2 engines?
And maybe a vna? For 500?!?

Yeah. Deal.
I actually love the farmer bodge paint job too. Looks like an old football helmet. I'd rock the ever loving shit out of that bike.

floor looks a little suspect...

maybe a smooth G. if there's no paper work or the tags are back, maybe 6~800. maybe.

if your current bike is running and you don't have a back log of work or updates/upgrades to do to it===> yes

if your current bike does not run and/or you have parts to do an upgrade or update===> no

Got a tip from a friend yesterday that advanced auto parts is closing West Coast, all stores.

I was driving back down south from LA to my house so for the hell of it, I clicked advance auto parts near me

15 minutes later, I had bought about 100 linear feet of racking for 500 bucks
It wasn't until I actually looked at the map and realized I was still 45 minutes away from the shop then it occurred to me. This is way more than a pick up truck can carry…

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Home Depot this morning, struck a deal with these three guys I miss his live streaming:
