While my bike is a 750cc, many parts should be compatible with the 500cc for sale. Hell, if fixed up the engine itself would allegedly fit into my bike's frame without modification. The seller does not know what year it was built, approximate mileage, or if it was running when removed.

but it's $25, for an engine.

Does it crank or is it seized? If it rotates, easy NP!

Might as well. For $25 it would also make a nice decoration.

Not sure, but I'm going to go find out right after work.

hmmm, not big enough for a coffee table, maybe a motorcycle block based end table :)

Damn. I have too many other things that need working on right now, but you make me want to go find a really cheap engine near me and build something involving it, a plank of wood, and four wheels.
