Picked up this running (with 07 tags??!!)bike that had not been registered since 1983 from local Craigslist for 400.00 It had a lawn mower ignition switch, all of the cables were broken except clutch, carb #3 was missing the bowl drain screw and was not getting fuel, leaky forks with major road rash and rust, the wiring harness was jumped out with cut pieces of wire, it had 3 30 amp fuses that would blow constantly, the tail light was not functioning, the signal lights were all rusted and shorted, Oil pan had 1/4" of sludge inside and 1/2" underneath, no front brake caliper, tank was RUSTY! The exhaust pipes were the ugliest loudest POS ever, no side covers, battery was completly dry, no air filter, no key for the seat lock or forks. All of those items have been delt with Carbs rebuilt, tank lined with Kreem, oil pan scrubbed and sealed tight, bought a 77 F for parts stole a few nuts & bolts, the forks (changed seals and installed gaters) the gaters come from a dirt bike but look good. got the fuse block from the 77 mine was melted real bad. I changed oil & filter, installed new plugs, new fuel lines, all new cables came with the 77, caliper from 77 misc wires and turn signals from the 77, new air filter, new bulbs, the turn signal buzzer was disconnected and still works the signal relay was missing i got an electronic one from Autozone, the 77 was 2 prong mine is three?? Got to tear down cylinders and replace gaskets. Will post more pics later.
