bamaland · September 18th, 2010, 11:43 AM

so at 8:13am this morning i waived and said my final goodbyes to the lil ninja as it rode off with its new owner..

what lies ahead is still unknown.. all the candidates i was looking at ended up selling.. and theres nothing left but to wait on another deal to pop up on craigslist

You see a deal on craigslist you jump on it right away. I made the mistake of waiting too long and go to call the guy and the ad is gone.

bamaland · September 18th, 2010, 01:01 PM

i know.. but i dont like making promises to sellers that i cant hold up ya know?
im still waiting on more money anyways so i got a little time to kill... the longer i wait the more money ill have

anywhere from free to $2,000! lol
willing to travel to get it too! just not half way across the country lol

either a new gen 250 or something bigger.. my tall ass looks like a slim jim riding down the road on a 250 pregen lol

im talkin range too.. would like only a kawasaki but im open to all types of sport/sport touring/super sports

im still debating weither or not to get that 1990 honda cbr1000 hurricane but its gonna take me another week probably to get the 1.6k he's asking..

right now in my pockets i have about 1.2k thats the fund limit this second but like i said each week ill have more $

austexjg · September 18th, 2010, 02:11 PM

Holding off a few more weeks makes since - it will be "out of season" for some people, so the deals are a little better. Plus, more cahs in hand always helps.

bamaland · September 18th, 2010, 04:31 PM

picking up a 93 500 tomorrow

gonna need some help with it though will know exact problems by tomorrow

bob706 · September 18th, 2010, 04:46 PM

The 500 is a good bike. What's he asking for it?

$450...
just needs new tires and a headlight..
imo well worth it lol.

bamaland · September 19th, 2010, 12:43 PM

well seems as though everyone i call about buying a bike is either just making up a zillion excuses why they cant get the time to sell it or just plain out tell me after everything is setup that they are just going to keep it.

obviously someone or something doesnt want me to even have a bike or a car for that matter so im just saying F it!

guess i can get that new xbox 360 and hdtv now

the south sucks ass that good ole' southern hospitality is no longer in existence..

bamaland · September 19th, 2010, 07:21 PM

as the world turns!

the 93 ninja 500 is now mine for alot cheaper

after arriving at the sellers house we were waiting on the battery to charge up.
soon as it finished i heard the motor turn over.

right before we loaded it up i decided to take a glance at the oil..
all i seen was green ooz so now im like whoa hold up.. blown head gasket. sure enough it was. but didnt see any cracks in the head externally.

ended up after 2 hours of over looking and talking about it and other random stuff i left with it taking it home for just $250.
also came with a box of parts included a new radiator, water pump, new set of forks, extra set of wheels and tires (sure enough the wheels are red!!)

so its going into the shop naked tuesday meanwhile ill be painting all the plastics. havent chosen a color yet but im thinking white.. idk why
