My neighbor showed up yesterday and offered to give me a 1978 Yamaha DT 125 E. It needs work...about 300 dollars in parts and some wrench busting.
I guess that means it really needs about 500 dollars in parts
...or more. The question is do I just get this thing running in good order, or do I actually restore it? I know whether it is worth it is really up to me and how much I'd enjoy it. It has 2600 miles...but many years sitting outside.
