Lucked Out on this One!

I'm allways looking at used bikes for sale just incase something good pops up.When I saw this listed I thought the owner must have just gave up for whatever reason and or is hard up for cash because when I started to add up the total cost in parts of what I received OMG! There is well over $1,600 worth of parts here and I paid $400 Canadain thats $310 U.S. For a tank frame with Girvin front suspention a Strumey Archer front drum hub laced with 12 gauge spokes in a really wide unknown rim,A Strumey Archer rear 2 speed hub agian laced with 12 gauge spokes in an aluminum rim along with a disk hub front aluminum rim.A hub adaptor with 40t,sprung chain tensioner,on a brand new Grubee Skyhawk with an R.S.E. head and a gt6 (GasBike) head speed carb and a cns carb,cnc intake,volosity stack,Lightning cdi and coil,along with gears cables and some odds and ends LOL.I also recived a triple tree suspension fork,a reg suspension fork and a twisted springer fork looks like it might only be for a 20" wheel though not sure yet.

The camera is mounted on my helmet if you look at the shadows you can see I'm wearing it.I am bad for rolling stops when the situation allows, but again you can tell from the cam I looked and looked again, I slowed right down and clutched so it's not like I blindly powered through or anything.I will do better next time!
OH well thank goodness for the helmet it was difficult to tell mostly looking at shadows, lol the only 'situation allows' for me is when I come to a stop sign but horrendous non-stopping cross traffic, if I reach the sign but it's clear for the next few seconds and that's my only chance for another 5 minutes then unfortunately I'm not stopping completely, so rare I can't specifically remember doing it other than I know I've done it at some point.

I also know that feel on a single speed, those stop and goes feel extra painful, but good for the legs haha..
