previous motor

I'm planning to take the motor to the blaster soon he did great work on my last motor, and thought I'd bring the carbs along. I do have access to an ultrasonic tho. I also have a small portable blaster set up so may go get some soda. Thanks for the input guy.

I wanna get the shitty black chipped/flaking paint off some carbs. Is vapor blasting acceptable? What's the best way to get em clean enough to reassemble after?

for a Barbie motorcycle???!!!

Nice group of riders, tell me about the rear sets on the 350 as I am in the market for a set.

they are the slip stream rear sets with folding pegs.

Very nice stable of bikes/ scooters. Really digging' the Lambrettas too! Also love the blue/ white vintage Yamaha sign- was this from a dealership that you know? Enjoy!

Finally a day off without rain here in CA. Took all the bikes around the neighborhood after sitting all winter.

hmm....Not sure I have the patience to wait til October.

Seems out of stock every where.

I have a tank I got off craig's list for pretty cheap. After giving it the evaporust treatment I found some pin holes. I was able to patch them from the outside with JB weld. It holds gas and doesn't leak but I'd feel more comfortable sealing the inside for prolonged contact with fuel. Anyone use the KBS system?

It's back! Out of my range now. CL BS.BS.!

shit gone already

Needs some bits and lots of work but seems fair. Wonder if its still in the system or if any back fees?
Go get it!

the back fees concern me for sure. especially since the vermont dmv down fall. that $1700 could finance other projects. but there ain't many around especially locally.
