Dick Barr's bikes
|
 |
|
 |
Dick has been with CJU
right from the start. This shot of his WWII replica bike
was originally posted way way back in 2001. |
 |
And
here she is again. |
| 10/2001 |
|
 |
Fast
forward to right now. Dick recently won this Chang on
eBay. It was item 2443487156. |
 |
As
you can see it's an M1M. |
 |
It's
been enhanced somewhat to resemble an Afrika Korps
machine. |
 |
The
seller had the bike in a Florida auto showroom with a
$10,500 price tag! |
 |
US
Army MP helmet... |
 |
...and
three tags. |
 |
Nice
vintage type taillight. |
 |
It's
all there... |
 |
...and
then some. Check out the mobile field radio mounted on
the sidecar. |
 |
But
here's where it gets interesting. This is the sort of
thing you see on eBay from time to timeblatant
misinformation. Luckily, Dick is a knowledgeable guy and
knew exactly what he was buying. |
 |
From
the bow... |
 |
and
the driver's seat... |
 |
...and
one last peek. Dick expects the bike to be delivered
around January 5th. I'd like to see how she looks once
he's tweaked on some of the details! |
