some thought has to be put into the
finances of a project BEFORE it starts and the condition of the
candidate bike is important to the equation. only you know how much the
end product will be worth to you--the whole world knows how much they'd
pay for it and there is usually a pretty grim spread there--if a little
caution is taken in front it will pay off in the long run--below are
some things to look for when making an offer on a barn bike--
negatives---bent fins, stuck engines, kick starters welded on, stripped
shift lever shaft, bent frames, safety wires everywhere (ex racer),
transparent oil drops under the engine (cracked case?) and missing
exhaust----all bad things that will cost money before a whole lot can
even start--
