    What a Steal! I mean Deal...........

    A customer has a 03 BigBear, Its cutting out and not running just like it should. It sounds like the carb to me so I have it off and have my mechanic going through it right now. If That cures it and I change the oil he said that I could take his old 3-wheeler as payment If i thought that was acceptible. Its a 1985 Kawasaki KLT160. Its also an original 1 owner machine (it was his fathers) !! It doesnt run right now so I dont know if the motor is any good or not but I plan on finding out here in just a little while. If there is anything major wrong with his BigBear (ignition problems or something cause a misfire) then I get the Trike and payment for "additional parts" that it might need. I almost feel like I am stealing from this guy but he came up with this Idea all on his own. Here's a picture.

    If it flies without any major problems then its headed for a service, cleanup and out to the house for tooling around. There are 3 bikes here currently in the works of resotration (73 Suzuki TS 185, 81 Honda 200, and My 86 200X). There are 2 more after there completion that are coming in (Dads 85 200X that I found for him and My 8? Tri-Z 60). The Kawasaki May see the day if everything works out but unfortuantlly I do not see it in its Direct future
