The next day when it I could see I started to look it over really close and after paying $800.00 I realized it was about a $400.00 bike if that. I was so pissed I didn't even take many pictures of the stuff that was wrong.
Here is a small list :
1. Clutch cover had a big hole in it (half ass fixed with JB) due to the primary crank gear bolt coming out.
2. Trans was empty due to a blown out clutch cover gasket
3. DG pipe was welded up by some blind epileptic guy who forgot to turn the gas on.
4. seat looked like a German Shepard used it for a chew toy
5. Air filter bolt feel out and a mouse had taken up residence in the airbox thanks to the rubber nipple being missing. The filter was chewed and there was a wad of hair, misc nesting materials and turds in the bottom of the box.
6. Most of the bike was put together with the wrong nuts, bolts and for some reason I guess its common practice in certain places to use wood screws when a metric bolt of the correct size is not available. There were also the common stripped threads and so bolts were missing altogether.
7. The rear hub was pretty much trashed because someone clueless wonder put the taper bolts in the square cut holes in the dual pattern sprocket. They eventually came loose and broke the tabs off the hub. The positive side was it had a new o-ring chain and new sprockets. Sprocket guard / case saver were missing and front sprocket had the wrong bolt and washer on it.
8. The gob of what I thought was oil / dirt / carbon on the front of the engine cases turned out to be two big chunks of aluminum that were welded on to cover up the big hole that the rod knocked out.
9. Once inside the engine I found two nice pieces of what looked to be ring fragments just about ready to go into the right side crank bearing.
10. Going into the trans I found two wire circlips and a washer / spacer that didn't belong in the gear cluster. Otherwise the trans looked great.
11. The clutch basket was worn beyond belief but the clutches were in new condition. I doubt they ever disengaged.
12. Rear shock was totally gone and the forks were like pogo sticks needing a complete rebuild including bushings. The bike just bounced up and down like it was just riding on springs. If I would have initially test ridden this bike on anything other than a perfectly flat road I believe I would have been in the hospital rather shortly after the crash.
13. Spacers were missing from the read brake hub. It was basically floating around on the axle being held in place by the brake arm and brake shoes.
14. Front brake caliper bracket was cracked in half and the tire was dry rotted.
15. Engine shrouds were missing and it was HELL trying to find a good usable factory set that weren't jacked up in some way.
16. Swingarm bearings / linkage bushings were shot.
16. And to top it all off someone had taken a can of red paint and sprayed it all over the frame and most everything else attached to it.
I'm sure there was a lot of other things that were jacked up but I just can't bear to think about it any more.
Ok, here are some pics I got before the guy delivered the bike :



You can see the Stevie Wonder weld job on the pipe


Tank bolt was missing, pipe hanger was held together with a bolt and you can see the gob of JB on the clutch cover.

The Sticker on the front number plate says it all...


I'll post up a few more pics later on of the initial tear down and some of the mess I found in the process.
