I get it. This is something I've been doing for a while. Not with motorcycle parts necessarily....but with estates and large lots of items. It's a LOT of work, I know that. I just felt like for the price and the sheer amount of "stuff" it wasn't much of a risk. If it didn't work out the way I'm expecting it to, it certainly wouldn't be the first time. If I make a bunch of money, learn, and enjoy the process, it wouldn't be the first time either. We all have time that we spend on different things. Some people watch television for 6 hours a day and don't really want to take on additional work. I get it. Sometimes I get in that mode, too. But when a deal comes along that feels right, I'm not afraid to put the work and effort in to try to make it work. Hell, I paid for my pickup truck AND my Buell just by going on Craigslist and getting free stuff that people were giving away and reselling it. My other bike was paid for by buying a bike out of an estate that my friend was selling. I bought that (for what he paid me to help him with the sale) and rode it for a little over a year. Then after a 2k mile trip on it, I sold it for 3x what I paid for it and bought my next bike. I love flipping stuff. It's a sickness for sure.
