PMF,
Personally I would not touch it as you have no history / title that makes it not stolen parts/ !

There is No CDI so the engine could be "Cattle trucked " and you have no way of telling ,it sounds like a money pit with possible jail time no thanks canofworms

No title but its clean.

Then where the heck did the title go? Sold it to someone else? I think that fat ass rear tire is worth 300 bux! so there is obviously something fishy going on.

Unless you are gonna use it for parts or part it out or make it a track only bike then i don't think it would be a good idea to even contact him. my2cents

I respect you guys thoughts. I called the guy he don't wanna budge under 600. He told me he has a couple of people coming to look at it. But I hope they are as wary as me about it . But I figured if hell take 300 I can't really lose if I was to part it. Again Thanks for your thoughts. Flo@
