KIC Posted April 20, 2012 #1 Posted April 20, 2012 So I have the opportunity to pick up these two 83 MK1 carcasses. I have been out of town so it has taken a while to try to finish this deal. I went back and really looked over them. My intention is to store them and just have the parts available. I would like to sell enough parts to cover the cost of the bike then the parts, nuts, bolts etc are there to pass on. Can you guys look at these pictures and tell me if there are parts here worth selling/keeping and passing on ? I have a few people interested in some of the parts already, just trying to figure out if it is worth putting the money out for them. What do you think they are worth paying for ? The fuller carcass has what appears to be: Good solid front forks ( not leaking) with anti-dive units. Good front fender Good Rims front & back Good right lower fairing Left side mirror ( light scratches on back) Good radiator Good right rear bag Left front turn signal lens Handle bars 1 chrome vent cover Misc chrome bars on sides two complete rear turn signals rear trailer hitch trailer light connector and wiring Most of the CLASS system ( condition unknown) Seat carcass Misc electrical connectors Engine looks mostly complete, but missing carbs and been left open to rain and elements.
KIC Posted April 20, 2012 Author #3 Posted April 20, 2012 The pictures of carcass #2: Rear rim front forks look OK but missing antidive units but has both calipers rear caliper Good raditiator with fan chrome radiator cover ( has slight bubbling on bottom) motor has missing parts
BuddyRich Posted April 20, 2012 #4 Posted April 20, 2012 See, That's the problem with 1st gens. You have to have three of them to keep one on the road.... You knew that was coming right ?
Flyinfool Posted April 20, 2012 #5 Posted April 20, 2012 1st gens are just so viral and fast that they tent to breed quickly....... 2nd gens are just to slow to catch anything to breed with and multiply, they tend to live the boring life of a loner. You knew that was coming back right ?
KIC Posted April 20, 2012 Author #6 Posted April 20, 2012 Yea.. I knew it was coming. BUT.. I was hoping ANSWERS were coming too....
