My 500$ Steal!
Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2017 5:38 pm
First off thanks Yo I was really bummed when I saw intruder-alert was defunct.
So my bike my old 96 intruder 1400 broke down about two months ago. Seems to be a carb issue but that's beside the point. I was dreading having to tear it down and figure out what the hell was wrong this time. Well I was working about 2 weeks ago and pulled into a driveway to turn around and low and behold on the front porch was a 97 Intruder 1400 that was obvious had been sitting awhile. I went to the door and made an offer of 500$ to the lady who answered. Her son called me shortly after and accepted the offer. So I picked this thing up for 500$. About 200$ later and this is my finished product. It had sat for two years, I ran through the carbs got a new battery and applied some elbow grease to get her cleaned up and it runs like a top! Couldn't be more excited!
