GB500 & SRX600'S For Sale

Figured I'd put these here, maybe somebody knows somebody that might be interested.

I've got a good friend that's not in very good shape health wise and I've ended up taking care of his place up here. He's in Fla. and can't travel so I've ended up being in charge of trying to get rid of his bikes. Besides these there's also a couple BSA's and a BMW R27. I'm way up in northern NY so I'm a long way from most of you but maybe you know somebody who know's somebody since they're kinda cult bikes.

The GB500 is an 89, 18,260 miles, road ready other than tires. It's here in the shop, I cleaned the carb and brakes a couple years ago and have been hopping on it and riding it a few times a summer. Has Progressive springs in the forks and a braided front line, Supertrapp can on it. Cosmetically it's good, few pits of rust started on the chain guard. Has a Corbin seat on it and have the stock one, also a Honda shop manual.
I have the signed NYS title . $1500

The SRX is a 86, 10,720 mi. also a second parts bike. This should start and run, I cleaned the carbs the same time I did the GB but it's kick start only and I'm not heavy enough / man enough to kick it over with enough authority to start it. I tried a couple times and said nope, no broken leg for me. Has Proggresive springs , braided lines and a Supertrapp can. The fuel tank is horrible, needs to be cleaned with Evapo Rust or something similar. Gas cap was junk so threw it away. I cleaned the front brakes and they work but the rear master cylinder is seized and not available from Yam. anymore. The parts bike doesn't have a gas tank on it, think everything else is. Also have a shop manual and a bunch of spares / odds, ends that go with it.
I haven't found the title for this one yet. The guy is a hoarder and I've got alot of shit to dig thru.
$1500 for both and the extra stuff.
I can get pics if someone is serious. PM me for a phone # .

 

I would love to have the GB500. How can we get it to Alabama. Or North Carolina?

 

Where in FL? I might need the SRX's.

 

I'm not getting involved in shipping other than rolling it onto what ever picks it up. Either do the drive or hire a shipper. Or maybe one of the Canadians that heads to Jennings or Daytona can stop and pick it up for a small fee. I'm 10 miles from the border / bridge on a main state highway.

 

He's in Lake Wales but the bikes are in NY.

 

Anyone planning on making the trip? Time frame is not a concern as long as bandit is okay with storing the bike.

 

What BSA's?

Cheers,

Dave

 

I'll help pay for the trip if you bring the GB back to Georgia with you.

 

Where in NY? Maybe I have family or friends.

 

I have 4 - SRX600's. I don't need more . . . .

Cheers,

Dave

 

Near Ogdensburg, on the St. Lawrence river, way up north.

 

One's a B40, the other one's the same as the Triumph Rocket 3, what ever they called that one. It's supposed to be kind of rare because it's a 5 speed.

 

That is only 1400 miles from our place in Florida.

 

The Triumph triple was a Trident, and the BSA triple was a Rocket 3. The BSA cylinders are inclined forward about 10 degrees whereas the Triumph's are vertical. The Rocket 3 also had the "ray gun" exhaust.

B40 is a 350 cc single.

Thank you.

cheers,

dave

 

You had a bike in your garage for me for quite a while, I suppose I could repay the favor. Probably only a couple hours from me.

"quite a while" ? I think it has been 14 years that I have had the DT in my garage.
If you stored the SRX's, you might have them for "quite a while". But, Maybe we can make it work out. I am thinking of some ideas.

 

paging mike olmstead to the ccoutrtesy phone. hes in lockport.

 

I can transport one of the bikes from Baltimore to as far south as Jacksonville, FL. I’ll be traveling in the I-95 corridor. I’ll be heading down in late Feb.

 

PM sent on the GB...

 

That's not a neighbor of Canada, they actually share a driveway.
