DOHC, 5 speed gearbox with high and low ranges (10 speeds total) lean running emission carbs, shaft drive, air suspension, all in all a decent, stable, reliable bike.  1980 was a kind of bronze/brown two tone I think, or maybe two tone red. How about some pics?

Not doing what you can to make your bike ride-able during the best riding months of the year kind of defeats the purpose of owning it in the first place.

Well I bought a 1996 1 ton F-350 4x4 dually flatbed that'll dump over 2 cords of wood and figured that I didn't need two gas guzzlers ! No its not a SOHC, digital camera broke, so that should answer some questions !   ;D

Put Universal tires on it and ride it in the dirt!!.. in case you are wondering what low range is for..


A buddy of mine put them on a CB750, went not bad in the dirt and snow dfor a 500+lb bike...sorta tiring though!! :o
