Thats right! Ten bucks! I saw an add on Craigslist for a yard sale with a 4-wheeler...CHEAP. Called the lady and she agreed to let me come and look at it early before the garage sale opened. With trailer in hand, I arrived to find an abused 91 YFM350ER Moto4. Ten bucks an an extremely sarcastic eye roll from my wife...I had a new machine! Replaced the broke off exhaust bolt and drilled and tapped the head for a new one. Re-welded the exhaust with the split seam halfway down the bottom side. New wheel bearings, new twist throttle, carb rebuild, new battery, new trans control wire, and quite a few other odds and ends parts....and it purrs like a kitten! Still looks as ungly as a homeless, three legged, wet dog! Now I am on the rebuilding the brake system from front to rear, and new tires. Now...if I could only find some better plastics for it! Cant wait to get it in the woods this hunting season...not to mention some doughnuts in the couldesac this winter in the snow! Pictures to soon follow!
