He is very well respected in the VMX world.  I have bought items from him that are reasonably priced and look at the Works SR125 Kawi cylinder.  That isn't crazy for Works stuff.

The carb must be from a high dollar Works model to justify the cost.

I've bought stuff off Terry a few times for my YZB/OW 12 project.....he has some cool bikes and stuff....we are lucky guy's like him started collecting these "Works" bikes years ago or our sport in the future would be the poorer for it......a bit of tidbit information....a lot of "Works" bikes where actually "stolen" (disappeared) by the mechanics after the season had finished as most of them where on shit money as the riders where the ones earning the big dough and this was there bonus....they use to sell a lot of parts to privateers as well ;).

The carbie looks like it would most likely be off a road racer as there does not seem to be any provision to connect an air filter. It would be a great item to have possibly off an early KR tandem twin road racer? wouldn't that be sweet.

It's for a rotory-disc so it doesn't connect to an air-cleaner.  Interesting to see the pilot air-bleed air is drawn in from the side of the carb, again because it is surrounded by cleaned air.

I too have bought parts from Terry Good and agree with T-Red and Davey Crocket as to his integrity. He's done a lot of good for the sport. .
