2x1981
So I was searching marketplace...as purveyors of rust buckets often do...
And well ... found another abused XL185. Was sold to me as a 78...but the compliance plate is 12 month 1981
It was cheap...the frame is solid (ticked the box)...Just what is in the photos...no engine,seat or tank.
a rolling frame...
everything is pretty crapola...Frame and mounts is what I paid for
Might be able to sell off the complete airbox.
So what are the odds i can make 1 beater bike out of 2 ragged on 1981 bikes and some 92 leftovers...?
The old man I bought it from had a shed full of restored to partially restored to dead XL185/250 and XR200s...And I really mean a shed full...like packed to the rafters full.
think I found my parts guy.
I'll just chip away at the beater bike for a couple of years and see how it pans out.
