Title: Somebody had to buy it Post by: VertexGuy on November 23, 2014, 11:36:40 am I felt sorry for this machine at the auction so I picked it up for 130 bux.
Its been there all year, nobody would buy it because it didn't run. This morning after a pot of coffee I decided to drill the locks and take the shroud off the monitor. And it lives again. http://youtu.be/xfxXohSTMRY Title: Re: Somebody had to buy it Post by: TimeRunner on November 23, 2014, 12:40:53 pm I felt sorry for this machine at the auction so I picked it up for 130 bux.

I love it when previous owners take things like the handlebar assembly off and then never put it back on for years at a time. Urgh.

Im gonna cut a brake cable to size and add an old BMX brake cable knarp to fix the brakes.
