Use a RV over flow catch can (available at auto parts store) and get carbs and manifolds and get it running before you plonk the money for the rest.
Cool.

I have a few parts you may want, depending on the level you want to restore.

brake light lens
turn signals
seat cover (I think it has a small tear in the back)
right side plastic (I think it is the right side but needs repainting and has a piece missing but is covered by the seat)
non-stock mirrors
stock fuel lines (from a running crashed biked)

I will let this stuff go cheap. I can get pics. Let me know if there is anything else you need.

I may I have a front wheel that I can sell.

ok i got in a set of mirrors, right side plastic, turn signals, brake lense, and intakes.
i also have a set of carbs coming soon now.

still need a front brake lever and the clip the mirror screws into on the right..

and will need in future a good front wheel. possibly brake pads, guages and seat or cover.

Post by: amcline on June 10, 2007, 10:33:11 AM
ok i should have carbs and front brake lever assembly coming in the mail now,

i thought of a couple other things i need

rear brake lever, just the metal arm and maybe the rubber boot for it, (somone bent mine up like for a shorter person but im tall)

gast tank rubbers, all of them,,, my tank is missing the rubber trim around bottom edge, the front rubber for the mount, and the 2 rubber washe type things that hold the tank to the bracket.

i also will need the speedo/tach plastic casing, and actual mount plate, and the rubber ring for them(i dont need the actual speedo or tach)

and i also will need the headlight mounting hardware and any grommets,

oh yea, and a seat still. but after seeing the prices maybe ill just recover mine...

cool, yea i may definatly take that front wheel, lemme know when you are ready to get rid of it and ill find out when ill be in the area again.

oh, do you know what sizes will fit on the rear? i was hoping to get a new rear tire but with a bit more "crown" or height as some would say, the stock 140-70-17 i think it is, is pretty flat and low profile...

Yeah I gave up on my clutch switch and just bypassed it in the headlight. Would take three or four goes to start it holding the switch and pumping the clutch.

lucky us that susi just so happened to use the oposite plugs, makes bypassing really really easy,
im not used to things being that easy, coarse then again susi is the one that used a really poorly designed switch. i dunno if any of you have actually looked at it
