For Sale: My "MOSQUITO CONTROL BIKE" 1985 RZ500

Some of you may have been following along as I tinkered on this bike for the last 9 years, and now you can watch as I sell it off.

I must admit, its sort of a half-hearted effort to sell it since I really enjoy tinkering on it, riding it, and sometimes just staring at it for what seems like an eternity. LOL But I have a ton of other projects in the works, and need to start focusing on them... I'm not getting any younger!

The restoration thread is here if you haven't seen it.

There is also a link in my signature line if you have those turned on.

PM me if you are interested or want more info.

That's a cool bike! I am building a house in Wilbur by the Sea these days, so my engine rebuild of the 86 I bought has been put on the back burner. Fly in and out of Orlando all the time! Best of luck!

Thanks. Wilbur on the Sea sounded familiar, but I had to look it up... seems like a great location between New Smyrna and Daytona. Yeah, a house build usually trumps all other projects, doesn't it. Thank you and best of luck with the construction.
