    Donate your bike for tax deduction

    Hey everybody,

    I have a friend who took a job this fall at a local public High School as the shop and auto shop teacher. He's trying to get a motorcycle program going there, but the school's budget is low. I have visited the school and there are a great bunch of kids who want to tear apart and rebuild a motorcycle as a project for the school.

    My idea is to provide parts and support to the program as much as I can on a donated bike. The students will rebuild the bike over second semester (which starts the 1st week in January) and sell it at a bike show or auction type event to raise money for building the motorcycle shop program further.

    If you have a bike in any condition that has a valid title you can donate it for a tax deduction. Please pm me with details. A race bike is fine, but it must have a valid title in your name to get the tax deduction.

    That's a great idea Duncan. What high school is it?

    It's great to see them branching the mechanic program out to include motorcycles.

    I would let them figure out how to get it.
    Or I could arrange something with Bergs.

    Shot me some photos if you could.

    I'm not sure if it's O.K. to publicise online, so anyone else wants to know the school just ask and I'll pm you.

    I'd like to know the name of the school. I have a 1976 KZ750 I would like to donate if they can pick it up from RI.
