Well I fired up one of 2 -1972 750's a week or so ago that I had bought recently and that I posted here about and moved on now to the 2nd one.Was hoping to get lucky again. The first one went well and looks good, still has original paint etc but this one is called Krusty.Would make a good candidate for a cafe or other project.
The price was very low and has a few extra goodies.Drag Specialties pipes, double disc brakes up front, Dyna ignition that looks pretty old though ,had an oil cooler I sold,allen bolt kit,maybe a heavy clutch pack,pretty stiff and hopefully more tucked in there. This bike is one that I posted a carb fix about that used a 45 ACP cartridge in the carb as a Ghetto fix. Note the cool bolt in the stator cover,WTH is that about ?? Anyway did the major tune up thing,hooked it to a slave tank and when I thumbed the starter button she instantly sprang to life again. Whew, you just never know. Ran quite well,hitting good on all four.Time to put it all back together.
Next will be a K5 that I am not having a very good feeling about, Carbs may be trash and engine has a sound when hand cranking. May be in the parts section soon-----
