Summary:
Used 1980 9,120 miles
Location:
Perth Amboy, NJ
Description:
I purchased this bike in 2002 from a collector who was storing it, and as I remember, was the second owner. It was last registered in 1995, and had 2929 miles on it. I started going thru it in 2007 with the intention of setting it up as an enjoyable, comfortable, reliable, good handling, good and near original looking rider. I also had a goal of not making any changes to it that could not easily be undone, so it could be returned to its original condition if desired, and to save all removed parts (which are pictured and are included). Aside from the common replacement of the faulty wires coming from the ignition pick ups in the timing side engine cover, I did make two alterations that may or may not meet that second goal. First, was to add 1" extensions in each center stand leg (no welding involved) so the rear tire would clear the ground after adding longer shocks. Second, I made an extension for the trip mileage reset mechanism on the speedometer, so I could keep track of miles between gas stops. This involved trimming the r/h edge of the dash panel, so the reset shaft would be easily accessible. The following is a breakdown of what else I did and the part changes. Front End: - Fork legs switched sides to position calipers at rear. - Forks set up with springs- Added Telefix fork brace. - Fully rebuilt Brembo P4.32B calipers with Brembo caliper adapter plates. - Ferodo Platinum pads. - Stainless brake lines made with all Goodridge components. - Brembo " F1 style" full floating 280mm iron rotors. - Brembo "916 style" 16mm master cylinder. -Telefix multi-way adjustable clip on handlebars to raise bars up about 1 3/4 inch. -Late '80's style Yamaha TZ throttle and new cables. Best throttle for big Dell'Orto's. Electrical and Speedometer: - All wiring, sockets, and connections completely gone thru, cleaned, and Vaseline protected from corrosion. - Ignition pick up wires from inside timing side cover replaced. - Questionable. Still available at ListedBuy!
