Info:
I got super lucky with being the first one to respond to the CL ad, I picked it up the very next after nearly 2 hours one way to get it(not bad at all). The bike has not been on the road since 1991, the carbs were really junked up an afternoon took care of that issue! The tank is in REALLY bad shape. Came with a new clutch, fluids changed and new tires.
Paid 1,040 total getting bike and gas back home.
Plans:
-R90 or R100 Tank
-Clip on bars
-Second front Brembo and rotor W/stainless brake lines.
-Custom seat pan with brown leather
-Rear disk brake
-Redesign rear suspension(requires more research)
-GSXR-600 front end conversion(over winter)
-Bullet style indicators
-Race fairing(depending on what I can find)
Long term plans:
-Making a bit more power, carbs? completely unsure of what can be done for this engine.
Any info/links on this would be neat! I found a few on getting different carbs, upgrading the crank etc
Colorway:
Satin black/polished aluminum & chrome everything with gun bluing for the tank and seat pan.
Goal:
Tight and nimble bike that looks great and drive sound, it is a weekend toy and light daily use.
Let's get to some photos!
This coating shit is all over the inside of the tank, it is also leaking badly on the bottom seam.
This tank is getting replaced ASAP and thrown on ebay for cheap.
This tube was so caked full of crap the jet was not able to be seen, had to dig it out and clean the jets and bowl passage way.
This jet was packed completely full of crap, once both carbs were clean it fired up and idled very nice. I had some spare bowl gaskets and threw them on(not pictured).
