Cross Country on a $50 bike: NY-SF and back

Just stumbled across this thread and thought it a great read. Five college-age guys riding across the country and back on old motorcycles.

I love the way these guys did it, it will be a great memory for them the rest of their lives.

Enjoy.

You said $50 bike, and I thought 'that's pretty cheap... old Schwinn, maybe???

Motorcycle? Wow.

82 Yamaha 750 Seca, I payed $500 for mine about 4 years ago, can of carb cleaner and good. Pretty hot bike, actually.
