Reminds of the time me and my best HS bud Jimmy done come across an abandoned Yamaha 250 when we was out plinking rabbits and birds on the BN tracks just down the road a piece from the Waffle House. We wasn’t sure if the old girl belonged to anybody so we took her home piece by piece over a months time til we had it all and no one knew she was even missing. Jimmys uncle Bubba was fresh out of the joint after doing a 3 piece for larceny and learned how to fix dirt bikes, cut hair and tattoo while “on vacation” 😉. He had that bad Oscar purring like Granny’s kitty at bingo night at the VFW before you could say incest. Me and Jimmy took turns taking that Yamaha home on weekends until he got hooked on the booger sugar and traded her for an 8 ball. It sucked going back to my old Schwinn Swinger, but it was better than walking everywhere wearing handy me down bell bottoms donated by a local homeless shelter. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
