Somebody had to buy it

[VertexGuy]

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.

I have one in storage that will need more than 15 minutes to get it rolling again. 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.

yeah this one had a lot of loose monitor solder joints, missing the brake cable and the lights were blown in the dash.
Im gonna cut a brake cable to size and add an old BMX brake cable knarp to fix the brakes.

You are truly living up to your forum signature as a Hero Member..! Are you going to save and play it for yourself or a give away?
