Found it listed as minibike, 400 bucks, no pic...Asked for a pic and recieved one ya couldn't see for :001_9898: It looked like a Bonanza and I said OH MY GOD :drool: Is that an all there lighted Bonanza? WOW it looks like it might be pretty sweet.. GLAD I asked that guy for pics... So.. I finally get clear hell and gone across Grand Rapids with a few extra bucks in my pocket... Get there to find THIS thing.. :doah: I ended up with two bikes
(The Bundle Strategy)
The Bad.....
It turns out NOT to be any Bonanza I ever saw
Fenders are broken.. Front is MANGLED...
Chain Guard missing
all kinds of stuff messed up...
The Good...
DECENT looking ORIGINAL H50 with lighting coil. All there and correct.. Good compression... Does it SMOKE at all??? :glare: No... hmy:
NICE original 2 speed jack shaft, with band brake, driver clutch, all complete and sweet.. :bowdown:
NICE!!!!! Original white seat, decent white original Hunt wild grips and peg covers.. :thumbsup:
Pretty GOOD looking round chrome cylinder tank under the seat :deal:
Nice chrome on the shocks, good tread on the tires... :deal:
I don't think it had many miles on it but the kids gave it HARD miles.. guy got it at an auction some 40 years later (tag remnants on the bars) ... His kid drove it for the summer probably, and parked it this winter.... :shrug:
It was listed at 400, the email said we'll take 275.... 3 months later it's 200 :shrug: today.... I wasn't too interested in that.. so he threw in another Bridgestone.. No motor and old as dirt.. SO far into the barn I couldn't see it.. :lol: BARELY see what the idea of it was... :lol: I ended up going 175 for both bikes because he said thats what he paid for the Trail Whore and wanted that back out of it... :shrug:
So I was already there after this whole huge nightmare all OVER Grand Rapids... He had me there, I had him there, the bike wasn't getting any nicer at their place.... AND DAMN!!!! That Lighted original Tec H50 NICE one with NICE two speed has to be worth that.. :drool:
PLUS some nice parts on the Bridgerstone.. :lol: NICE 1965 Honda ignition switch with key.. :shrug:
