Well, the old girl has been sat for many years, I have no Key, No Paper work and No real interest in rebuilding her to be honest, but, what I hope to do later is use the Engine, as I have wanted to fit this powerhouse Motor into a CB750 K series Chassis, may take a long time but sometimes these projects take on a new challenge and thats half the fun right?
So I shall start to strip it soon and sell the parts I do not need on Ebay etc and when I have time I shall take the motor out and pack in a box until such time as I am ready to take on the new challenge of building a Power House Cafe machine, so, stay tuned…….
I have to get this Chopper running first, then that will be up for sale.
