Early 1970ish American Eagle/Sprite 250 GMXR roller. Bike is missing fenders, expansion chamber, carb. Fiber glass tank is there and the rare aluminum side panels with the stock air cleaner assembly. Rear wheel still has the talon taper hub, front has been changed, rear has a brand new tire. The motor is complete and will crank over, it is not seized. Shocks, forks, triple trees look stock, front of frame is tweaked and missing rear hoop from to many wheelie crashes. $650.00 or obo. Nice parts bike to finish restoring yours. The neat part for me i actually got to ride this bike as a kid (I'm 52 now)

It's a shitbox. We contacted the bloke and he sent a photo of a total basket case worth about $250 tops. I'm looking for the photo but can't find it at the moment. Because he's had it since new he's sentimental about it and therefore thinks it's worth big dough.

Though the chase never ends  :P just gotta out bid Firko's crew  ;)   ;D
