Another one followed me home!

Picked this up this morning. I actually rode this thing before I bought it. Bone stock motor with 28 carbs with pumps, still has the stock air box. Chassis has been raked 5deg and has a 6" over club arm with shocks. It actually rode nice, starts up and runs perfect. Paint is VERY nice. Nice list of new things and stuff been done to it. The guy I bought it off has arthritis and is going in for foot surgery and can no longer ride. Now the hard part is do I keep it? I don't want to be on that show "hoarders".

That's some custom looking paint there!!
Nice find.

Keep it! A hoarder is a guy with 100 bikes that don't run. A guy with 100 bikes that run is called a collector. :laugh:

That'd be an episode I'd actually watch anyhow... :pinch:

man that is a LSD paint job

i would keep it,i have some bikes and that is one thing i have learned over the years is to keep my bikes.

If you are that worried about it you can drop it at my house lol no real order if it runs it goes in the shed lol.

One day we hope to be on horders lol all the old trucks and bikes and most are not quite road ready lol

Hoarder, Collector potato patato i'm jealous!

Nice Les....

I realize pictures can be deceiving but it seems as though the paint job was done fairly well... In a weird kind of way, hell of an eye grabber so I'd possibly keep it as is as well....

Should be good with the ladies in a Austin Powers Blue Suede Jump Suit... :laugh:

Well said Ed. I'd hang on to it but find a good painter really quickly!

Very nice. Keep it for sure. The paint is, well.. different, but you won't have to worry about seeing another like it!

i vote to keep the bike and the aaaaaaaaaaaaaaacid ttttttttttttttttrip paint job man!!!!!!!! :laugh:

the 70's paint jobs are as cool now as they ever was.

unless you did NOT like the paint jobs from the seventies,in which case they suck as much now as they did then :pinch: .

i wore bell bottoms as a kid and thought everything about bikes in the seventies was cool so i may be biased. .

ive got a 73 z1 sitting in the barn with the gold/green metalflake body work from back in the day with kawasaki airbrushed in huge letters on tank.
im guessing that must of been somebodys dragbike back in the day ,then they shoved a stock motor back in it and used big motor in something else.
