NYUK Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 from the looks of brads bike building it is half the fun.10,000 g`s will cover a motor that can compete. 14 mil, with all the bells and whistles,matoon cases, cryo treated override.ect,ect.

FireHead Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Sell it. If you decide not to sell it, send him my way. My bike is basically the same thing if replace you chrome with black. I'd take $10k for mine after a couple days of thinking about it. I've been starring at the triple cases that Grand River has been pushing on eBay. They're starting to look like alot of fun.

BansheeBrian Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 If I'm not mistaken the old Olds hill time champ was a triple that sold for only 8500.That will probably get you thinking. Well Brad if you decide to go for the 10g's and start with you're dragger be sure to post plenty of progress pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee tuner Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 I'd take the money and run real fast on your new drag bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalegoldston Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 You will regret selling your duner unless you already have another bike to play on. Which sure cant be as nice as what you are selling. From the looks of your current machine you are not hurting for money so keep what you have and start fresh. Thats my opinion for what its worth.

As for what I was thinking of doing with a triple, I would like to make a dune bike out of one, not a drag bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNBRAD Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Well I worked on some details with this guy last night. He said he would give me 5500 cash up front and he would buy me 4500 in parts on his CC toward the drag shee if I wanted. I'm like that sounds cool. I have one more obstacle, the wife!! I have to catch her on a better day. She's ok with me selling it but she's not too crazy about me doing another one. Women just don't understand. Dale has a good point as well. I'd really like to keep it no doubt, just to dune around on it. Of course if I sell it I could build my next one A LOT quicker. It's not that I'm necessarily strapped for cash, but coming up with 15k or whatever it will take for my next build will take some time. So I guess it really boils down to a time issue. You know we all hate to wait for something we want, just part of life I guess. So who knows what I'm going to do, I'm really struggling with this and I know I will kick myself for selling my shee, but maybe my second shee will keep my mind of the 1st one. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing you guys brought those cause Wes was ready to haul my ass behind his shee and I guarantee you I wouldn't have wanted to be behind that thing trying to tow me. I'd still be picking sand out of my skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
