It's been awhile since i posted any progress. I finally got the bike all back together after a couple shake down rides and rode it for the first time this weekend. I still need to do some small things, front brake pressure switch for the brake lights, some safety wiring, and redo the sketchy...

I might get back around to it one day Sent from my iPad using DO THE TON

I've done crank seals on multiple motors before and know they're not a big project. I just wanted to get the brakes figured out first since that has been the biggest problem so far and has required reconfiguring everything. That should all be done this weekend and then onto the seals Sent from...

I've made quite a bit of progress the past couple days. Stripped carbs of the black paint and got them cleaned up gorgeous by blasting them at low pressure with walnut shells.

I picked up this beauty just last night. The story is that it was built in 1975 but the tags expired in 76, so its sat in storage since then and looks like it was never even ridden. It has all the trick 70's parts on it, lockheed brakes, kim tab mags, koni shocks, bassani pipes, and dunstall...
