Colorado B.S. Thread

It's not off the table, just waiting for the price to drop a bit more.
I really don't need another truck, but I definitely needed another bike.

 

you have any interests in two Triumphs? Need to confirm exactly what they are but my uncle has them in southern Minnesota and hes been trying to get my to come take them for a couple years. One runs great, the other was a parts bike

 

Free?
I really don't have room for 3 bikes atm.
This one needs some tlc as it is. Runs fine but been sitting since 2014, so tires are first, a new seat as I simply don't care for what it has now and maybe lose the apes for something that fits my short but stocky stature better.

 

depends if he actually gives them to me for free. He originally said if i drove up and grabbed them, they were mine. TBH i probably wont go get them for a while.. i try and stay away from that state and i dont think any of that side of the family is going to kick rocks anytime soon

 

I'll rent you some storage space

 

well, keep me in mind for first offer to buy. Depends on what they are.

 

They'd look great next to my broken down motorcycle. Less lonely that way

 

will do

 

You can drop those bars by about 3" just by getting rid of those risers and installing a lower handlebar mount. Looks to be the stock bars, and at a 10" rise they're perfect for me (2002 Dyna Wide Glide).

Keep the sticky side down.

 

Good eye, I didn't notice the riser. That will be coming off. Thanks!

 

Apples to apples $1300 a yr savings
Thanks Mike

 

Sounds good. I’ll touch base via DM when I land in Salida tomorrow afternoon.

 

Drop how much more?

 

I'm surprised it hasn't sold yet to be honest. Let me see how many customers decide to pay up next month before I make any firm decisions. I sold my Taco and my Sportster to cut down on expenses and free up some income, Now I'm going back down that rabbit hole because hearing the damn things rolling around with the warm weather is killing me.

 

The bikes have been tearing up the town every evening and it's definitely making me jealous too

 

I'll be sure to roll through your hood. It's loud enough to set off car alarms.

 

At first I read that as you talked him down TO $1400 from $5900 and was going to crown you "King of the Lowballers"

$4500 still seems really cheap. Did you fire it up? I let mine sit for too long a few years ago and the gas ate everything in the tank

 

It's been sitting since 2014 and the gas is original from that time. The original owner passed away in a car crash and his widow kept it in the garage the entire time. It took a minute, but I got it running and it sounds pretty good. Definitely needs fresh gas, a quart or so of carb cleaner and all the fluids changed, new tires too. Good tread but after ten+ years pretty sure they are dry and not road worthy. But other than that, it's in great shape. My weekend is already mapped out and guaranteed to piss off the neighborhood.
This thing has the angel of death all over it.

Cute skull gas valve. Chain link shifter.

 

very nice acquisition Brett.

 

I'd wheel it
