Another product of "this is too good of a deal not to get..."

Though i'm learning the trouble is that A- every project i get, i want to keep and B- it's never as simple as fixing the main problem. I'm too much of a perfectionist, or i care too much about things. But if you're gonna do it...you might as well do it right. 

Picked this up from a guy on Two Wheeled Texans who bought it new in Universal City, right down the street from my Grandparents' house, in 2003. 

He gave it a great life as a dirt bike until it started knocking and the crank bearing went bad. So i figure one crankshaft later- i'll have an awesome dual sport with title and everything. 

 

Best since Day 1.
