So I am searching for a Tecate kicker boss today and my search leads me to an old motorcycle salvage yard about 15 miles away from my house. This is a weird old place out in the woods that has been around forever but I am always reluctant to go out there because they wont deal with you on the phone plus I have never had any luck getting parts from them (no T3 stuff). I hadnt been out there in years but this time when I pulled up I had a good feeling. There were a couple younger guys that were running the place now and they were out front standing by a complete ALT125 and a ATC110. Also out front was a complete KLT185 and several parts ATCs (110,185s,etc.) The guys were real friendly and I told them what I was looking for so we head inside (which is a dirty, run down, shop/shed filled with old parts in no particular order). Immediately I spot a speedometer amongst piles of rubbish that catches my eye, which is very similar to when an eagle spots his pray but probably a little more refined"How much you want for this?" I ask calmly. "Umm........ $65." says dude. "Sold"
It is for the 85-86 ATC 250r and it even has the clamp for the fork/cable. I was so surprised to see this rare part at this place! Since I am the nicest guy ever I am giving it to Bretmd94 to put on his bike of choice. (I believe they fit 350X?) I will have to head back out there and snap some pics of this place (didnt have my camera with me
). There is probably two acres of parts scattered around, some piled ten feet high. Maybe when I go back out there they will let me in the back of the place, something I have always heard they will never let anyone do..............
Oh yeah there were about 6-8 KX motors and not a single kick start assembly or even a kick shaft he said![]()
