How in the world do you guys come across these deals!!! I'm lucky if I come
across a deal for a used plug wire!

Hi Tom,
Sounds like a good deal! Keep me in mind for the rear drive - the only good
one I have has 8/37 gears (probably from a V700) not the 8/35 Ambos used.
The pinion gears on the other four rears have big pits on the teeth or have
missing teeth. Not good.
My V7 Sport/Ambo/Ambo purchase evolved into a V7 Sport/'73 BMW R75/5 deal.
The owner couldn't bear to part with the Ambos and the only way he'd sell
the V7 Sport was if we took the BMW with it. The BMW is in need of TLC, but
has a set of Wixom bags, a larger than stock tank and some sort of weird
fairing. Still $2000 for both is a steal and I hope to recover some of that
by selling the BMW. Anyone interested?
We won't need facilities to store a bike after all then - last I heard from
my brother he was in Oklahoma and hoped to be home here in MD by Tuesday
after visiting friends in the Asheville area. I can't wait - it's like
Christmas Eve when I was a kid! Cheers,
Charlie

Well, from the "I just can't say 'no'!" dept. I bought a 71 Ambo with a bad motor. Conmplete bike 'cept for one battery cover. Guy thru in a trailor, too. Most of this stuff will be for sale soon. Rear drive, anyway... I'll keep you posted.. |
