Fox chest protector. It's an old one... i'm never going to wear it again.
I'm 6ft/180 and it fits me fine; there's some adjustment both bigger and smaller. One of the side buckles is busted (photo below) but still latches, and the webbing in one of the shoulders is loose but still works. $10? Couple of Pacificos? Item located in Littleton, SW metro area.

WTB PW80 or XR70

My daughter is ready for her own dirtbike. Doesn't have the clutch thing figured out yet.

Would like to buy a PW80 or XR70 for her. Budget is $500. Anyone have one?

Thanks in advance, Rich

Looking for a TW

Does anyone have a TW for sale? Looking for one of the early years.

Let me know what you have.

Thanks

Damn... 2 weeks ago I had three of them for sale. Sold 2 and gave one to my 77 yr old dad.

Sorry I can't help, but keep up the search! If you find one you'll love it.

Yeah... and still have two (one set up for offroad and one that I ride exclusively around town). It's a sickness...

BTW, you mentioned an early one... be a little careful of the '87 models as they are known to have CDI problems. I kind of prefer them, but you have to count on dumping $200 to $250 into a new CDI box.

Thanks all, found a PW80 on Craig's today and she is happy. I didn't realize how fast those things are. I rode it around the yard and will have to limit the throttle.

Thanks for the heads up. What are the signs of a CD I box going bad?

The bike will usually idle fine, but will cut out and intermittently lose spark at higher rpms and/or higher loads. Many people mis-diagnose it as a carburetor issue, especially the seller... "oh, it just needs to have the carb cleaned, it's been sitting awhile"

I just took a closer look at this helmet. While it is in very good shape, it isn't quite as pristine as I thought it was... Some light surface scratches, a bit of dirt, etc.

Dropping the price to $200 even. I would love to keep it, but it's way too small for me.

Super light, at2.8 pounds. Super cool visible carbon fiber, great ventilation, protection, comfy, an all-around top-of-the-line helmet.
