    Hi Ty,
    it's always good to swap a car that you don't like for a bike that you do.
    Me, I'd have most likely screwed myself out of a bargain by opening my big mouth and telling that poor crippled-up guy to hang a sidecar on it, move the brake pedal to someplace he could operate it and keep riding.

    I was just looking...Really

    I was just looking, really. While looking through the for sale adds, I came across this nice looking bike a Black 83 Yamaha Venture but they were asking waaay to much for it $3000 but the last line of the add said "Willing to trade for a working car for equal value." I just happend to have a car that I was trying to sell a 98 Oldsmobile Aurora that my wife and I do not like. (We only paid $400 for the Aurora) So we go look at the bike and found it to be a good bike but more in the $1800 range. So after taking test rides and drives we agreed to swap vehicles. So I got a nice cruising bike for long rides and to ride while I rebuild the two that I have in pieces. I got some pictures but the bike is black and its dark out so you cant see it very well.







    I do need to replace the tires and take of the lower light bar (scraped it 3 times on the ride home in the turns).
    But overall I got a decent bile for $400.
Working...
