I just bought this beauty and am ready to get her on the road. The previous owner was a younger guy who obviously couldn't handle it, and dropped it at low speed. It scratched up the "tank" a little and broke the front right caliper. Before that it sat for a couple of years with the owner before who was one of the two having all the work done.
The previous owner or owners(there are two names and addresses on a lot of the paperwork) put a lot into this bike. I will log what I know.
May 06: Pads and rotors.
Oct 06: Carbs, plugs, fuel filter, belts, battery, coolant, tires, gear oil, fork and dust seals, fork oil, noted to have previously installed electronic igition. 32,236 on bike.
Dec 06: Sargent seat
Jan 07: Air cutoff valves replaced
Nov 07: Braided brake lines, brake rebuild, cable lube, clutch adjustment, front end alignment, fork springs, sreering head. 34,964 on bike
May 08: Randakk petcock repair kit and oil filter conversion.
Nov 08: Coolant and hoses, oil filter, fuel pump install, swing arm grease, clutch cable lube 34,964 on bike.
Apr 09: Oil filter and tires.
May 09: Randakk electric fuel pump kit.
Feb 10: Oil change and Hagon shocks installed. 35,600 on bike.
Apr 10: Oil and filter
Jun 10: K&N air filter and battery
Jan 11: HEL lines
Mar 12: Oil and filter, dyna coil ignition
Jul 13: Grip and mirrors
The records stop there until early this year when it was transferred to the PO. It also has a fork brace, bar forward clamps, and I believe a Randakk condenser ground upgrade. The exhaust is Jama.
