    Salvage yard tx?

    Hey guys,
    I'm out on the road right now and heading into Texas. Does anyone know of a really huge yard that is out this way? I seem to recall that during my search for parts a few months ago I cam across a pretty famous/large yard, but for the life of me can't remember if it was in tx or az. I'm looking on the nerd but not coming up with anything that jogs my memory!
    Thanks

        Red Springs.
        More of a dead motorcycle with trees through the frame museum than a working yard.
        Bring bug proof boots.

          salvage

          In East Texas, near Tyler, is the Red Springs Salvage yard. Just north of the Tyler State Park. 903-858-2252 but I'm told he doesn't usually answer.

          Here in the DFW area I use L&L cycle in South Dallas for a good place to waste a day digging through a warehouse full of dead motorcycles. 214-421-2910

          Over near Ft. Worth there's a place called Mr. Motorcycle (formerly called Richland Hills cycle or something like that) that has a pretty good collection of old Zukes. 817-624-7861 . mrmotorcycledfw.com

          To me, Red Springs is by far the most interesting place to spend a day or so. It's probably 5 acres of row after row of old bikes just lined up collecting weeds. TKent and I went there a while back and he's right...some of the frames have trees that have grown up through them. It was summer and he wore shorts. Big mistake. I wore jeans and boots and he didn't take the hint.

          But for the guy that has time to search, it can be a gold mine.

            I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
