Another Steal I couldnt pass up!!! was created by jordan
Well, I checked the SD craigslist last night and saw a couple triples very recently listed. I immediately called the number and told him i would take them for sure. Good thing i called so soon, as he said he recieved multiple calls after me, even a guy from california who was going to have them shipped down to him. He wanted $300 for the 500 H1 with a locked up motor, and $400 for the s2 350 with good compression and overall good shape, but no spark. He said he would take $500 for both. I drove away from my house this morning at 4 a.m. to make sure i was there plenty early. My buddy is getting the 500, and i am keeping the 350, and hopefully with my other 350 i can now put together a complete bike. Here are some pics.

Morgan on his H1, he was pretty excited



Then my 73 s2

Dude that is a nice score I love the triples they make my heart thump like the KZ's do. The best thing is you will fix em and keep em alive rather than parting them out. Congratulations

ouch... haha I always thought that i was getting screwed living here in South Dakota never finding good deals on classic kaws, but my luck seems to be changing lately. At $250 per triple, i wasnt going to let this slip away from me.

Nice score. Nothing like that ever pops up on CL like that in AZ.

I would have kept the H1 though. :)

ya, i really would have liked the h1, except he fronted all of the $500, since i didnt have cash, and i had to kind of talk him into it since i would not have been able to buy them both so i let him pick which one he wanted. Also, now i have enough parts to complete one triple since i have another 350
