Looks like a good bit of parts and nice bikes. Those pipes are nice.
The tires however are very old and likely rather hard and once aired up will likely show some cracking. I know, I have those on my bike.

Actually the tires (the NOS ones, not the ones on the bikes) are nice and soft and rubbery still. Obviously the ones ON the bikes are dry rotted, but it is cool they still hold air.

You mean the tubes hold air. Might want to let some air out of them before you blow a hole in the side of them.AMR wrote:Actually the tires (the NOS ones, not the ones on the bikes) are nice and soft and rubbery still.

Nice find on those bikes. Always good to see more surface.
