My brother has a hot rod shop and they did the work. Actually Steve Schmidt aka crew chief and offshore racer did the work. He works for my brother. He's talented to say the least.

I love bikes!

My buddies basement.

Wow! Talk about bringing back some memories. My first bike was a Yamaha 60 (white and red) that I got when I was around 8 years old (1972ish). The throttle stuck on it one day and instead of killing it I was concentrating on unsticking the throttle and flipped it upside down on me on a set of railroad tracks that ran behind our house. Thank God for helmets! Bike was messed up so it got traded for an 80 (silver and purple). I believe the 80 was a '73. Somewhere in there I had a 100 for a short period of time before getting a Hodaka Combat Wombat ('74 or '75). I'll have to ask my Dad the exact years of the bikes and see if my mom still has any pictures I can scan. Loads of fun. I remember the neighbor that my Dad road with having a single cylinder 400 Yamaha. Great hill climber! My uncle rode for Husqvarna back in those days.

-I had a Hodaka Super Rat 100 and a regular Wombat 125. I think the Super Rat was the most obnoxiously loud bike on the planet at the time. I can remember people screaming at me at the top of their lungs to shut that faaakking thing off! Sounded like an unmuffled chain saw from hell!

The Combat Wombat was a rightous piece in the day. It was a bike that I wanted badly but never owned.

Just bought this quadzilla,I was on the fence for an '82 RM 465,but went for the Quad.

nice find Bryan and she's got a fine set of knobbies

ya, them 500's are a fun ride..especially when your spitting stones at the rider behind you...he finds out real quick that your on a 2-stk 500...

Best part is that he has all the receipts,for the fresh motor and trans,I ended up paying what the receipt total was,and it was all done over the winter,I was looking at a lot of these and they were all listed as rebuilt,but nobody had any paperwork to back it up,as soon as this guy told me he had paperwork,it was a done deal,it will be about a month before I can get it to a place to air it out,it runs on race gas,but owning a boat it will be like using pocket change to feed it...
