The Waiting Game

So,I just came home from looking at this 850T.I never actually got to look at it.Got jerked around with this guys phone now working so after 4 try's I went riding .While out cruising around I thought about what I should do and decided I'd email him with an offer.I explained that it's a T and T's aren't what the collectors go after,which is the truth, so the fact that it's a non running bike with a seized motor makes it worth not as much as he's asking.I offered him 500 bucks .He got back saying he'd consider my offer which is a good sign.At least he didn't just blow off my offer and honestly I doubt there are people beating a path to his door for this bike at this time of the year .So,now the waiting game starts . If I get it I will have scored but paid him a decent price.If I don't get it,so what.It's not like I don't have any bikes to work on.There is a 72 BMW R60/5 and a 1988 BMW K100 waiting for me to get to them .

Then there are the Yamaha 2 strokes I'm building to sell to raise money to buy a house out in Arizona.It would be nice to have two 850-T's so I can always have one up and running but there are other things that are important as well so I wait. With any luck I'll be bringing this Guzzi home
