I originally bought this one just to fix to resale. The picture above shows it after the new paint. After I spent 3 months working on the various problems and just as I had a sale set up they announced the shelter at home orders. I mean literally hours before the sale and I had to set on it for year and a half. As it turned out, the bike had a set of cams, matched s&s pipes and was tuned. It also had a Dynatec ignition and would run like a scalded dog.
The list of work performed included
- Front fork rebuild
- Front brake caliper rebuild and pads replaced
- Rear brake caliper rebuild and pads replaced
- Rear master cylinder rebuild
- Complete paint job ( had a few rusty spots and a place or two where the clear coat was coming off)
- Transmission main shaft seal replacement {was leaking)
- Full oil service and tune
- New Battery
Needless to say I was not going to let it go for free but I had a few People try. And they kept walking. I finally traded it back to the man I originally bought it from in order to get a Yamaha 650 classic with a side car. But that’s a different story.
