I am new to these forums. I have an Amf major. I was hoping somebody could tell me more information about it. I recently paid $1 for it from a close friend. It seemed like a good deal to me. I know nothing about it so any information would be great! Thanks

Your bike has very little collector value.

But I call bikes like this learners because you can begin the process of learning the innards of a bike by taking this one apart without potentially damaging an expensive one. Clean and regrease all bearings/surfaces. (Head, bottom bracket, wheels) Plenty of tutorials on line! Even the Bendix coaster brake that I suspect it has, is very simple to take apart and reassemble (again, see on line tutorials). And while it's apart, it's easy to clean and wax paint/chrome surfaces. Finally reassemble.

Most likely the only parts you will need are tires if yours are dry rotted, so for about $40 you will end up with a freshly tuned rider and you will have learned the basics of bike repair!

You might learn that bikes are fun, or not fun, to work on. Either way you win!
