1982 Xr125

[jerryg79]

Another one of the bikes from the Clyde collection. This was actually clyde's bike and the big brother to the bike jimmy is selling. I would say it is a medium size bike, its a little small, but karl used to ride it and i ride it no problem.

It runs good, usually starts first kick. Needs brakes, but really the way i putt around on it you can just downshift. The exhaust was "fixed" with some PVC but that has recently broken and needs to be reworked.

The lack of exhaust i think is making it idle high right now.

I just put a tube in the rear tire and both tires are in fine shape. The rear one is a super mud grip tire that rides rough on the street but rules in the mud/sand.

It was originally street legal, and can be made so again, but it will need a blinker on side that is currently hanging and obviously some brakes.

I'm asking $300 which is what i have in it. I'm not in a hurry to sell its just taking up space in my garage, so save your lowball offers.

;;;;

[BroncoJo]

Do you have the tilte? and can it wheelie? If so I think I'll have to buy it.

[Sharpe]

and can it wheelie? If so I think I'll have to buy it.

I've never seen anyone include this in the required criteria while shopping for a vehicle :laughing:

[jerryg79]

Do you have the tilte? and can it wheelie? If so I think I'll have to buy it.

karl can make it wheelie not me.

its a 4 stroke so its not a speed demon more of a woods bike.

Yes i have title, still in karl's dad's name though.

[BroncoJo]

That will work pm me your number and I'll call you to work out details.

[jerryg79]

call me tomm afternoon/evening, the cellphone towers are still shatty by my house so cant really talk now.

[KrazyKarl02]

Another fine item from the Crouch Collection. I will testify that bike will wheelie. The rear tire is awesome. Clyde put a new clutch in it, but that was like 7 years ago. It is almost a replica of the bike DavidO now has. It tops out around 50, so it is a great school bike.

[KrazyKarl02]

Oh and this is an XL, not an XR.

[jerryg79]

Oh and this is an XL, not an XR.

yeah i saw that but im lazy, me and karl rebuilt the carb less than a year ago as well.

[jerryg79]

im around now if you want to call.

[jerryg79]

its on the list

http://houston.craigslist.org/mcy/851166435.html

[BroncoJo]

I want it fawker I'll call you soon as i can.

[jerryg79]

haha, right after i talked to you i went and started it up 1st kick....ran it upto about 50, all of the sudden motor gets really loud, the "muffler" broke completely off and wedged between the swingarm and the tire. It was just a piece of pvc hoseclamped on, wasnt really doing anything. i'll hold onto it just so you can see how it was done....

Just so you know karl's idea of a wheelie is dropping the clutch in 1st, it will pull the wheel a little from 1st to 2nd but not like a 2 stroke.

[BMFScout]

I had the same muffler on mine. It was burnt through (surprised?) I replaced it with sheetmetal, it promptly shat everything from inside the muffler!

[BroncoJo]

main reason for asking if it wheelied was to see if the clutch/motor was still strong, I'll go ahead and make a wheelie bar that I can put my foot on for campsite cruisin.

[KrazyKarl02]

Anything will wheelie if you drop the clutch hard enough.... But this bike will do a real wheelie if you know how to balance yourself. My brother could ride a wheelie for like 100 yards on it.

[jerryg79]

not trying to pressure you travis, i just found this funny. apparently this guy doesnt take no for an answer.

Do you have a title for the XL125? I don't want to low-ball you, but I'll give you $250 for it. I have cash in hand and I can pick it up tonight.

I need a bike like this to put around my neighborhood. Please call me - I live in Houston (Cy Fair).

Thanks,

Adam

Yes, i have the title, but i feel like $300 is a fair price. I just listed it, and i feel like a running dirt bike is already a good deal for $300.

If you want to come look at it. I live at:

1814 Ryansbrook Ln.
Spring, Tx 77386.

Fair enough. I can do $300 once I see it. I can come pick it up tonight but I'd like to be assured that we have a deal before I make the drive. Please give me a call - I will be away from my email so call me and you have a deal.

Thanks,

Adam

Have you considered my offer of $325?

[Fredo]

***...that's awesome jerry.

[Sharpe]

[Reckless]

[BroncoJo]

[JB]

Shiloh Ridge poon-tang puller? Do it Travis.

[BroncoJo]

deffinitly enless crazy dude buys it out from under me.

[jerryg79]

I probably wouldnt sell it to crazy dude anyway. I specifically said no lowball emails, and that was the first thing he did...so f him in the a.

[Graystroke]

he'd probably show up and say something is wrong w/ it and offer $250 again...then he would go back and forth and settle on $300. I can't believe you gave the guy your address. He's probably watching you right now through binoculars.

[KrazyKarl02]

Ahh the Clyde Crouch Collection bounces around. As mentioned before this is a good bike. Someone in the club should pick it up. College kids this is a great bike to drive around campus. Pops wheelies and curbs like no other.

Parts are cheapr for it. You can repair the muffler as I did for cheap....

Yall will probably have to move the fightin roosters' houses if he gets it.

[eight]

There are no fightin roosters' houses at my house. I can fit 220 sq ft of boat, plus an xj, portable building, 2 utility trailers, misc wood, crap, and a quad on the side of my house. Look out the back windows and all you see is a table with a grille on it, smoker, fence, and trees. You don't think I can fit 2-3 sq ft of motorcycle?

[BroncoJo]

sold

[KrazyKarl02]

Good job selling it for under $400....

http://houston.craigslist.org/mcy/1024088177.html

[BroncoJo]
