| I bought the bike about 2 months ago. It only had 6,999 original
miles on it. However, it also had 23 years of neglect and
GRUNGE all over it! I rode it home and it actually ran
fairly well, but the front brake failed about a mile from home and the
turn signals took a dump at the same time. I spent the 1st
month cleaning, polishing and repainting things while I disassembled
the engine to replace all of the upper end gaskets and
seals. To my astonishment, she fired right up on the first
try and runs better every time I start her. No work done on
the carbs yet. I think if it ain't broke, don't fix
it! I have a total of about $1,500 US invested now and it's
worth every dime in satisfaction. Nice to know that I can
redo a motor successfully on the first try! Mark in Phoenix |
