This little POS runs great and always fires on the 1st kick. Someone used the front headpipe and welded a piece of pipe to it and one of those fag fart car pipe chromed ends. The tank leaks and has been painted green! It has no rear brake caliper or master cylinder. The bearings in the swingarm were shot (pivot and axle), and the pivot bearings were a muther to get out! It has no lights front or back. I will be restoring it and will update the pictures later.

Not a bad little project Mark, that should provide you with a lot of quality time in the garage this winter. Gonns restore it to OEM, or are you going for a custom look?

Going for a OEM look. I have almost all the OEM parts to fix it. I have a fairly good gas tank and am having that sandblasted, to paint it. It will be almost perfect OEM except when I get new maier fenders. It should look pretty good! We'll see. I'll post pics as I go.

It is a 84 and I am going to try and get it to look close to a 85. Should be interesting.
