    Guess Owen's trying some different tactics to get rid of his stockpile.

    He's got a massive amount of stuff; someone with a lot of knowledge and patience could build a kickass bike for cheap by getting everything from Owen. But I have neither the knowledge nor the patience.

    I like the presentation. A bunch of shiny motors in a big pile. Beautiful. He could at least pretend like he cares and line them up on the floor or something.

    It's the same guy. His name's Owen; he's in Danville, which is just outside of St. J.

    Ok I want VIN checks on all those bikes and engines! Haha =P JK. He could probably make more money breaking them all down and selling all the parts to a metal yard to melt down haha. Scrap metal is getting pricey in this economy!

    screw all day, i could spend the whole damn winter in that place. hell if nothing else I bet I could put together a killer quad engine go cart. probably wouldnt drive for shit but itd be a cool project.
    On another note, its probably bad that I actually recognize a couple of those valve covers. I think ive had too damn many old bikes.

    We went up awhile ago. It was awesome. All old bikes, 60's-70's-80's

    All in parts. Definately tempting but i walked. The guy NEEDS money though so it would be cheap to get the parts to build one.

    I'd do it if i was going to race vintage.

    I don't need any more crap in my garage, but wow that's tempting. I'm sure 90% of it is garbage from sitting out so long. There must be some good stuff there.
