well i called the guy up to see what the deal was. he said it doesnt even need a topend just a head gasket and it runs awesome, but heres the kicker. its a 85 by the way, he said he has a extra frame, 3 tanks, 2 COMPLETE MOTORS! 2 jugs, 2 heads another set of wheels with new tires, extra swingarm and someother stuff i cant remember. He said I could have it all when i come to pick it up! he said there is basically enough extra parts to almost build a secound one. So i will have alot of extra parts and will take pics when i get it home.He said he did a frame up on it so the frame is freshly painted. Ended up getting it for $390 with all the extra stuff i think thats a damn good deal! Also he said he got it from his friend and just didnt want to mess with it anymore but said his friend has a few other bikes didnt say what alll they weere except for a couple of tecate 4's. ill keep you posted. :beer

Great score man. I'm glad I posted it now. I ment to mention that it didnt need the top end just possibly a bore and some gaskets, but when I e-mailed the guy he didnt mention all the other parts. Turned out to be a better deal than I originaly thought it was. Killer score, keep us up dated. Glad to see a member of this board won it. :TrikesOwn

That was one sweet deal!! When I got my '87 LT 250r Quadracer, I was loading it in the back of the truck and the guy told me he had another "parts" bike in his back yard if I wanted it (free). I said I would go take a look and found a complete bike, same model, same year. The only thing wrong with it was the frame was cracked in front of the motor and the clutch shaft was stripped. So I got two complete bikes for two guns (30-30 and a 20 ga.) I'm doing a frame up resto on the first one...making it race ready and the other I'm extending the frame where its cracked already and making it a drag bike/hill-shooter.
