You must pick up the bike. You can rent a motorcycle trailer from (one of those local rental places) for about $10/day. There is no title. I can offer a bill of sale. I just placed the fender on the front tire. Didn't have the bolts handy and didn't want to zip tie it for the picture. I bought this bike ~2000 in PA through a friend and stored it in my father-in-law's barn in Maryland. I hadn't been riding motorcross in over 20 years and the bike was priced right. I rode it probably three times before my divorce in 2006. I retrieved it from the barn in February this year, deciding to refurbish it and ride vintage. It's a beast.It had been sitting in the barn so the air cleaner had been eaten by mice. I removed and cleaned the carburetor, replaced the head bolts (looked really rusty), and replaced the head gasket. The piston looked really clean and had no scoring. I put on a new throttle cable and clutch handle (it had broken). I remember the clutch dragged a little so I was about to drain the oil and inspect the clutch when I noticed that the oil drain plug had been welded on. I only rode it three times so I never even tried to changed the oil all those years ago. The left half of the case has the drain plug in it. I've seen left half cases for sale on eBay. But I'm old(er). I don't have the time or energy to split the case and transfer everything over to a new case. I told myself that if the resto was quick then I would do it otherwise I was selling it so...here's your chance to own a piece of history...a real widow-maker. You'll see that the front shocks have some rust pitting on them. I have another set of forks that I'll sell for $175. I'll throw in the clutch kit and clutch cable for free.
