Looking for “Garden Art”

Post by Bucho » Thu Feb 17, 2022 2:15 pm

Sara would like some interesting things in her lawn garden. I suggested an old motorcycle. She really liked that idea.

So this bike will be placed outside and WILL succumb to the elements. So I need a bike with a blown motor/destroyed transmission. A bike that no normal person would want to resurrect.

I will probably also cut the top of the tank off and make it into a planter.

Post WTB on Craigslist? Some serious rust buckets turn up there on occasion. I would think the even worse conditions ones people don't even list.

Wtb = wanting to buy

Maybe call around to JT's, Ellicott city Motorsports etc. and ask them if they have any old junker bikes they are wanting to get rid of. A lot of shops have old POS' sitting around and you might be doing them a favor by taking it?
Lots of cool bikes---

I don't do Facebook, but you can look at McKees Sky Ranch, they did this a few years ago. I believe there was a picture of theirs. I also would like to do one with nice plantings that my wife picked.
Retired and loving it!
