Moto-Brian Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Very clean and really cool. Not a lot of work done, either. Looks like he kept the frame intact, kept the forks, wheels, etc. Did some fab work, but nothing you couldn't simply buy... I like and is a great example of what we normal folks can accomplish...

Zach Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 He chopped the frame to make the tank fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We found it for $500 I think 2 years ago when his brother started riding right around when I did. Its been a solid bike, hoping to talk him into doing a project like this since he has the skills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 The Seca 650 franknStein has for sale ($350) is perfect for something like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Sharp! Kinda reminds me of a dirt tracker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 if anybody wants an '82 maxim for cheap, my former coworker has one that I'm betting he'd sell.From what I've seen of it, it's not in bad shape, and totally stock.He's graduating from law school in a few days, and has to take teh bar in February. he was literally JUST telling me how all the review courses and forms are "$500 here, $300 there; another $200 for whatever filing fee with the Ohio Bar Association..."I would bet $600 or so takes his Maxim 650 in ride-it-home condition.
