Corbin's Motorcycle

Corbin has been talking about getting a motorcycle for a few months now.  Anytime you mention the word motorcycle to Brandon...watch out.  He got online and started looking for a bike in Corbin's price range and his preferred style of bike.  He found several options for Corbin to look at.  He found one salvaged bike from 2005 that was a Yamaha V Star with only 7,000 miles.  It was priced at around $3000 but they accepted $1,950 for the bike.  Corbin decided to go for it.  

We went to the salvage yard after I arrived home on Saturday morning.  This place has so many bikes everywhere.  They have contracts with some insurance companies so when people crash this place gets all the wrecked bikes.  We found Corbin's bike and took a look at it.  It looked like it was in good condition so we decided to go for it.
They fork-lifted the bike out to Brandon's truck.  We tied it down and took it to Brandon's parent's house.  Brandon cleaned the bike up a little.  Then he worked on a list of all the parts he would need to get it ready to ride.  That night he got online and started looking for parts.

The V Star is a nice looking bike.  I think Corbin is going to be really pleased with it when it's finished.  He already sounds really excited.
