I went yesterday. I just happened to be driving past on the way to my property and there she was...all setting up. I didn't buy anything but I wish I'd bought the PE175 roller for $100.

i think you will find most swap meets are all over by midday. best to arrive early to get the good stuff

I think most of the usual suspects were there: Mboddy, Snowy, Dennis, Twistandshout, Graeme Mc, Bill, jimson, Tom, DG26, oldstuff, etc etc. I don't think anyone went home empty-handed.
The swap meet was a lot better than last year - about triple the sellers, I reckon.

I scored a set of Cooper Betors, some reasoanble DT250 forks, an alloy rim, a couple of sprockets and a heap of ADBs from the early 1980s.

But far more remarkable was that there was nothing that I missed out on, and very little that I refused to buy because it was over-priced. Most swap-meets are exercises in frustration because you're stuck with sellers who want a zillion dollars for stuff that's only mildly interesting, while everything you do want has just been bought by someone for about 5% of its market value...

nathan whos hl 500 and what type was for sale ,if you know

[Nathan S]

Didn't see - HLs are an abomination in the eyes of the lord!
Pretty sure it would have been a kit bike - there were some bits that suggested to me that it wasn't a real one - just little stuff like gold rims.

Had a chat to the bloke who owned it, though - talked about Coopers and Betric and Classic Dirts. Seemed like a good bloke, esp after he realised that we were "VMX people".

the swap meet was alright ay there was two HL's there today there was an XT with jacked up suspension that looked like an overweight hl so not really a HL and there was one with a proper frame i think they wanted $6,500 for the proper one dad had to drag me away as i was drooling to much Tom

[BETRIC]

I stayed overnight and scored a shitbox YZ80C for parts ($50), Tom the HL you looked at was a 500 motor in a RM frame, the other bike was a TT500C, their were a pair very sad DT1's with square swing arms asking $500 for each one I broke about even selling and buying parts, it was the biggest one so far for Goulburn, Bathurst is in 2 weeks time at the showgrounds.

Firko, the PE roller sold for $60. I was going to buy it for the shocks but I didn't have much use for the rest. I ratted the speedo, bracket and swithchblock off it for $15. The guy wasn't fussed. He told me he was from Orange and apparently had quite a big collection at home. He was at the recent Black Duck Vinduro.
