Nice Job!! Just goes to show you that these things are EVERYWHERE!!

A guy on my road has a 200X with a Curtis Sparks motor, it has 3 flats and has sat there for at least 10 years. He says it's his sons and his son won't sell it.... I'm about to make him another offer.

Great find bro!!!!

great score! Those will be sweet after some elbow grease. The best part is that this R

on the left has the rare Hondaline flattrack offset racing axle. Good score! :w00t:

It's kinda crazy... It's like someone parked them 10 years ago and forgot about them. It just suks when they get left outside, so many things get ruined that can't be restored very easily. But a great find and super cheap!! Hopefully with a few hundred bucks you can have a runner and probably sell the other parts to finance your daily rider. It's super easy to dump a grand into an R real quick.

Yes, that offsef H-Line axle is rare but it's only for clockwise run flat tracks!! LOL, enjoy and keep us posted.
