Just picked up a very rough 86. It runs, thats about it. There is no fairing, no bags, no blinkers, no front left foot peg, and no gauge cluster. My goal is to get it back on the road as soon as possible. Pictures to follow.
Sounds like a winner to me. If I was to recommend anything it would be to pull the carbs and send them to Steve in Florida. I think he gets $300 to completely go through them the right way and install overflow tubes. When they are in his hands just go through the bikes and do a complete fluids change, adjust the valves, clean up any wires that are rubbed or just hanging there. Make a parts list and post it here. When you get the carbs back and start working on getting her running you will take out the biggest variable problem out of the mix knowing the carbs are good and you have fresh fluids and adjustments made.
Can't answer about the red circle, but I'm envious. I've never tried to rebuild a M/C, but it looks like fun. The possibilities are endless!!! that's awesome. i want one. 8)
I've already ordered a factory service manual. I'm currently changing fluids and going through the wiring. The harness seems to be complete, thank God. The tank is going to need some work. It looks like this bike has fallen over on the left a couple of times.
