Sounds like a deal. Especially if those wheels are as good in person as in the photo. With $300 budget you'll have to find some free good tires. Find a friend at a tire shop who will save you some good pull-offs.

you should have enough spare parts there to trade some one for some decent tires.where are you located ?if you dont want them ill come down there if theyre close.:whistle:

i live in johnson city, TN (near bristol if you like NASCAR) but i'm bettin i don't need to get too specific with the location of the bike until next weekend

Two bikes for $150.00 , heck go for it. Get the blue KZ running and it doesnt look like it will take much. change out the swingarm from the SR to the KZ and you'll have a rear disc brake w/mag wheel. Front mag should swap over as well. Sell the wire wheels for tires . blue bike already has a 4-1 header. Sell rest of the SR parts (orange/black bike) on e-bay and you might just get all the $150.00 and a free bike. A good manuel is a must ....Good luck Wayne

i was wondering about swapping the wheels. so i need to change the whole swingarm between the two bikes? also if it's not leaking, i think i like the shape of the parts tank better. did they have different tanks or is the paintjob trickin my eyes?

Hey you better get those bikes ,, If the Blue one is anything like the picture ,, What a deal you have found,, Looks like someone tried to make a Harley out of the other one the poor thing ..Look at all the parts that are there .. You will have a good time making one out of the two ,, Good Find , Good Luck (:

Go for it, you could definatly make 1 bike out of the 2, and have lots of spare parts, its a great learning expirience too

Nice find. Keep us updated.

the tanks are differant styles but should have the same mount, as for the rear swingarm and wheels, by switching the orange one to the blue one you accomplish upgrading to disc brakes from drum brakes brakes

sweet, that's what i wanted. i'm also thinkin instead buying a cafe seat and tail, i'll try and shorten the factory piece since it's really grown on me and make a seat similar to the the corbin gunfighter. i'm also debating running clubmans or clipons. i want to get the bars as low as i can and still ride it safe. that'll probably have to wait till i actually sit on it and see how she fits. here's what the corbin seat looks like.

and heres my bad chopjob of the shortend tail (i don't have photoshop).

here's what i hope to do for bars.
