    Creative Advertizing.....

    Hate to burst your bubbles..... but....

    1.) I see the box says "Mugen".... I'd just beware or ask the guy for sure if they are Mugen or not. They look exactly like the ones I bought recently from Progressive. If you read the description within, it says they are progressive fork springs. (carefully forgeting to capitalize!) I just bought a set for my 82R and for my GoGo girl 350X. BikeBandit.com had them on sale for ~$62. So personally, with shipping from that guy, I'd probably not go over $40-45 on an auction. I had the 2 sets of Progressive Springs sent from BikeBandit w/o tax and for $6 shipping. Not sure the difference between a Mugen or Progressive fork springs.


    2.) The "rare" sticker I got caught up on before... I have bought that same sticker, a "Warning: I drive on 3 wheels" 82 Honda Promo Bumper sticker, and a Honda HRC racing sticker from the same person, just changed their ID. I can't say whether or not they are "originals", but seems like they sell like one per month so noone catches on! The Bumper sticker, I asked how many she had when I got mine and I thought she told me it was the last one. I've seen her sell at least 4 more of them since. As a side note, I am currently using those stickers to make large vinal banners to hang in my shop, once that's done, I'm sending them to Harlan in MN (oldman) and let him do his duplication magic.
