    An offer I couldn't refuse

    A friend is cleaning out his garage and selling his motorcycles. He offered me this 87 Suzuki GS450 for $200 bucks. Included were two spare sets of carbs, shop manual and owners manual. It has been sitting for quite a while so the carbs will have to be removed and cleaned. Other than lubing the control cables and a taking care of a few minor issues, it should be easy to get it up and running. I just couldn't say no.

    Nice!
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
