i know a dude who wants to sell this, so i thought i'd list it here. looks really nice but needs some work - clean the carb and adjust the points and i bet it will run just fine, but he hasnt started it. has a tear in the seat but otherwise looks great. the guy bought it for his kid a few years ago for $650 and never bothered with it, its been sitting in the back of a bike shop under a sheet. said he'll take $400 for it. im not taking a cut or anything, just trying to help out because i like that bike shop. email me if you're interested, address is in my profile. thanks!

I love these bikes. One of my two favorite Sachs bikes, the other being the KTM Foxi. If you haven't seen one in person, they are SUPER heavy duty. Those forks are hydraulic, by the way.

looks like a 505a or b, i'll have to check tuesday and take the side covers off to see the model designation stamped on the case, or the carb size. talking to someone by email also. owner said it does run and it has run, just not lately.
