Saturday morning a friend of mine asked me if I knew anything about a certain brand of motorcycle. explained to me his tenant had moved out a while back owing him thousands of unpaid rent and had left some things in the building. he goes check and he finds an old motorcycle.. I go check online for information on this bike.. a Royal Pioneer! like the one American Pickers paid $55k for on a recent episode.. supposedly it was one of 3-4 known to still exist.. printed out a picture of a 1910 Royal Pioneer and asked my friend if it looks like this.. yep that's it.. a few small parts missing but in pretty good shape.. I offered him $25 for it but I believe he's hanging on to it for a while. I haven't seen it yet but he says it looks like this one. I told him he better hide it away and get started on the procedure to claim it legally. the previous owner ran off and abandoned it there a couple months ago. if it isn't claimed after 3 months, after a bit of paperwork it's his.
