Stray, you're really making me jealous.
The DMV needs to post the 2011 rider's course schedule already. I gotta get in before mid-march when my company stops letting us take vacation days.

Unless he is wanting to make a good amount of money on just a bike or two. I must be the lucky sumbitch, cuz last year I was able to get a complete 72 H2 750 triple for $200, the bike did not run but did kick over. It's a long story but after buying the bike for $200 I washed it, put it on ebay, and made $2800 off it. Didn't even have a title for the bike.
I wish I could have kept it and restored it, but the money was too fast and easy to hold on to it.
He has one CZ and 2 Hodaka Combat Wombats.........not for sale thou.
Several Harley's,even some of the old AMF dirt bikes,again not for sale.
He wants to open a small museum in Paris Tn when he retires (owns a small construction co.)
Has a couple of Triumph 650 Bonneville's,650 Norton even has one of the Indian 50 dirt bikes like the one on Pawn Stars a couple of shows back.
I'm going to meet back up with him Saturday morning and Ill get some pics....it will blow your mind at some of the stuff he has.2 Mechanics work full time on his cars and trucks,right now they are putting a 57 Nomad together next is a Corvair.

Ahhh, my triples were the greatest. I had a few of them, Bro. My 72 H@ Cafe Racer below. 70+hp and all 'glass bodywork and the highly modified braced frame frame weighed in at 35 lbs. This bike was a true rocket ship and EVEN handled around corners!!!
He is my one off 74 Superlube motor that I build around a 1990 GSXR suspension all aluminium frame parts and the GSX wheels and brakes and forks. This body was the original one piece racer work from the '70's and I had it cut into three pieces and glasses back together to narrow it and shorten it. The bodywork weighed in at 20 lbs. Nice and light weight bike and that means more power to the ground of course.
I had the 'glass faring custom made from a guy in Fort Lauderdale. He made the Frenched head light area perfect and sight unseen for me so I can run nice twin headlights to see better at night after coming home in the dark form all the drive-in late night get togethers. A lot of fun to see all the Friday and Saturday night rod and bikes.
I sold both of these bikes to a guy who owns NAKT (National Association of Kawasaki Triples). He is from Vietnam.
