    The one I got had sat over a decade. I doubt you will find any wear from sitting. Crank seals are a good investment and per the shop manual I believe the LH side gets sunk 5MM into the bore to pass the crank taper........................
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    Yea I know there won't be any bearing wear from sitting... But gotta think why it got put away in the first place. My LT250R sat for 13 years because of a wore out top end and bad rear end bearings. Checking things like that are just a precaution that's nice to do. It may seem 'over kill' or something like that,, but ya never know ya know?

    Dirty, but, not the worst! Lol. That filter may even clean up nicely, if you have a K&N service kit.

    I FOUND THESE TWO TIRES A LOCAL TIRE SHOP.

    both goodyear. small one is a 23x8x11 and big one is 24x8x11. quite a bit of difference in size, to me. anyone run one this big on an r?? I went a head and got the 23 cause it was brand new , or like brand new, I don't think its been mounted , but has a date of '03 on it. $30 , I couldn't turn it down. I wonder if that 24 would rub ,though??

    Will get pics for you later when I get home. I got them with this 88 LT that I bought. They don't fit my zuki rims so I got no use for them

    Ok so turns out they are Ohtsu H-Trac R/T 101 in 21 x 7.00 - 10 only just got home and it's already dark so I brought one inside for pictures. The other is just the same condition/wear






    If you want them make me an offer, if not I'll throw them in the for sale section. No clue what shipping would be on them
