1973 ATMX

My newly acquired ( some have called it a boat anchor )


AHEM ... bike.  


Old Brown Shoe ( Scott ) and I took a tour to the Long Beach Motorcycle Swap Meet on Sunday.






I made sure NOT to bring way too much money , $83 to be exact so I wouldn't go crazy and pick up something I really do not have room for. My buddy Johnny had a spot to sell some of his parts, so after spending a total of a whooping $ 34, we went back to see how Johnny was doing .Had a beer and milled around.


The guy in the next booth came over and said, " someone over in the next aisle had an AT for sale now for $20 bucks and we should go check it out!


Well I walk passed it earlier , chuckled and shook my head and promptly left the area.


Now Scott and I went over to take a look once more, sure enough..hand written on the tank was $20.


Scott and I agreed that there was only 2 usable part on it. Yet we stayed for about 8 minutes mumbling back and forth. 


The owner came over and said, " for you guys, Take it , it's for free ! I don't wanna load it or see it again !!


It's FREE ....get it outta my sight ! "


O.K I said, came home and checked the VIN #


a 1973 ATMX. numbers matching.

I will be getting back to this bike soon after all the craziness subsides here in California.

Another late night here.

Kinda funny..I am more worried about you guys back East and North with that big storm.
