This bike stayed like this for thirteen years!
Now I know what you must be thinking. Part gone here, bit gone there, lots of
important stuff missing. "Not so", I tell you. When I went to pick this
prize up at Ricks house, it was exactly as he placed it 13 years previous plus
about one inch of cat hair. During this time Rick had sent the motor off to
someone in/near Los Angeles to be rebuilt. The guy had the motor for a very
VERY!!!!! long time. Upwards of ten years. The great earthquake where the
twin decked bridges collapsed happened during this time. For a time after
this earthquake Rick cannot contact this guy. He tried for months to locate
the gentleman he sent his precious motor too. Rick finally did track the
fella down and low and behold he still had the motor. So it was sent home
still in the same packaging my friend sent it in, no work ever done.
Below are the photos I took when I brought it
home.
