16 Dirt Bikes for $5K, But Can They Be Made to Run In 1 Day?

Every once in a while, if you keep your eyes open, you can find yourself an astonishingly good deal on something you're incredibly interested in. It won't happen every day, of course, but you have to be absolutely ready to jump on it if and when it does, because it may never happen again.

This is one of those super rare cases, where Craig and his Bearded Mechanic buddies scored not one, not five, but 16 entire dirt bikes (well, OK, 15 bikes and one little quad) for the princely sum of just $5,000. Even better, most of them are pretty complete, with only a couple missing some parts (and one missing an engine). 

In addition to the double-digit number of bikes that TBM filled their trailer and pickup truck bed with to haul home, there were also a bunch of spare parts and other cool stuff included in the deal. As a combination library and motorcycle nerd, you'd better believe I was excited to see that old Yamaha parts fiche tucked away inside an unassuming little envelope in the mix. That's the stuff, right there!
