Bullaco motor ID

This for sale down the street from me. Any idea of value? He says it is locked up. If it is cheap enough I might have a bad ass door stop.

Hell he haas the whole bike. He said $150 it all

Eh... To a restorer it could be worth a good pile of money. Depending on condition. Bultacos arent SUPER rare, but they arent Hondas either.

Also, looks like maybe a "Mercurio" or "Pursang" 125. Hard to tell without seeing the rest though.

I talked to the guy. Persang 250. I am going to go look at it tomorrow

Well, I know a handful of vintage trials and MX guys. And if there's one thing I can say for certain its that they spend money. These are the dudes that owned these bikes when they were kids back in the day. Now they're nearing or at retirement age, and most have plenty of expendable cash that they use to buy the toys of their youth.

My point is... If you can buy it for $150, do it. Play your cards right and find the guys who NEED this stuff and you could make a few bucks. No doubt.

If it is fairly complete, I am going to pick it up. And probably stick in the corner for a bit until I decide what to do with it.

They were the bike to have if you were racing off-road, back in the day. Those Maicos and Huskys.

I just got off the phone with him again. Turns out he is one of my customers. It is all there except the rear shocks.

 

[VonYinzer]

Do.
It.
Now.
