I saw a 77F today at my local restaurant, stopped to look at it and ended up talking to the owner. He sold me a new in the box Henry Abe 900 kit. I know, pics or it didn't happen, camera battery is dead but charging now. I paid his asking price of $20 and got 80% of a 77 black engine for another $20. I'm going back for a new in the wrapper 77F cam for a cool hundred.

Oh, the guy also asked if we were the two guys that bought two 750's from a local towing company. We are, he said he had owned them and one of them has a 900 kit in it too. Glad I stopped to look at his 750!

You see...deals like that would never happen here in So Cal....

Oh wait, did it actually happen? Still no pics? j/k

900 engine you already have run currently?

No, the two bikes we bought with the alleged 900 were for parts and are in my brothers storage. They were outdoors so I fear for there being anything good inside. Gonna have to go look now though.
The guy paid $35 for the Henry Abe kit in the 90's from a bike shop he helped at.

The guy did say something about getting laid tonight, his girlfriend thinks he's a hoarder and rewards him well whenever he gets rid of something. Lol. Win-Win.

Would you be interested in flipping those?

?? Pm me if so... I live near Milwaukee.

Don R · « **Reply #12 on:** August 20, 2012, 07:34:20 PM »

I might sell it later but for now I'm enjoying looking at them. I'll keep you on top of the list Tews19 thanks for asking.

Were the piston rings included with the 900 kit?

Don R · « **Reply #16 on:** August 20, 2012, 09:46:50 PM »

Yes, sleeves, cast pistons, rings, pins and clips. I just dropped the cylinders on my Ebay 836, haven't put on the head yet.

Yes, but low expectations can be the key to happiness

You hate me now, just wait. I didn't spill the beans yet about the sandcast. Oops. It isn't mine but will be for sale.
