Hello all my name is Scott and I thought I would document my build here as I have been foloowing the site for awhile now. Seems to be good people here, thanks for all of the knowledge here it has been very helpful.
I picked up the donor bike a few weeks ago for a $1000, it is a 98' Buell S3. It has a blown motor, thus the reason it was so cheap and it has some real bad bubbling on the tank. The motor is going to get rebuilt from top to bottom so I did't mind the it being blown. The gas tank and most of the parts will be sold off so this was not a concern of mine either, however the front end, and wheels will be used in the build.
This worked out perfect in my mind as I got a complete bike for 1k instead of paying 4k for a running one when I was going to gut the motor anyways.
More pics and info to follow as I get into the motor and see how bad it really is.........
