Just waited 8 Mo for a deal to come through.It did ...Bitter I am .To me promptness  is paramount .Knowing the hell the fellow went through in his personal life in those eight Mo I forgive him, he is a great guy.Super pissed though  three Months short of a year coming home- looking at my steps for A box every day.... and nothing .You fellows worked out your dilemma It's all good- Just hating right now. Can't even  get exited about the awesome parts I received !      Part's... I know probably never- ever come across. So sorry about the Hijacking of  your thread   Adults get perturbed as well.

Damn you are like an English teacher or something :roll-eyes: You need to get back to the States and show us your rides !   I Want to see your skills, and builds.Must have spent A veritable fortune on shipping to Seosan -Si  .

As a matter of fact, I do teach English!  lol  My apologies for my acerbic whit.

Try this frustration out for size; I didn't find the museum until I was already in Korea.  ALL of my bikes I've purchased on here (basically recreating my old stable of bikes, and adding a few I dreamed of!) are sitting in the states waiting for me and my stepson to return and start our builds.  My plan is to make it a bonding experience for us.  Aside from his enthusiasm, I am bringing 30+ years of bike and car customizing skills/fabrication and design experience to the table.  I am not sure how appealing that will be to the average museum member, who overwhelmingly lean towards full factory restorations in their builds.  That is not me.  I am the guy that would take a RL20II NOS/never-been-built frame and strip it down to paint it the color I want.  Not joking.  While I can appreciate the member who do that, it holds absolutely no interest for me.

You and I cut from same cloth as it seems .It is the bikes of years past ,and the upgrades and personal touches that gets me.I have found the best builders are of graphic design or of artistic nature.

I don't have any qualms with this sale .The disclaimer he provided was '' It is what it is " .The pics are pretty accurate.It is up to the buyer to pour over the pictures in agonizing detail,before you break out the wallet.Lets face it we were all pretty hard on our equipment back in the day. Never probably cared in the 80's that these bikes might be rare or worthy of so much monetary scrutiny. So pay attention.       Heck I purchased 98 Pro Series XL On Craigslist.It was listed as 1990 Pro Series with no dent's neither of these facts proved to be true .Buyer beware !

Wow , this thread has turned into another a## kissing contest.
So you know before hand, I won my last fight by 3 blocks .
