THERE IS NO TITLE, offered , 55 ajs 500 cc single. bike had been stored for a considerable period and was missing a few parts./// THE MOTOR SHOWS THAT IT HAD BEEN PERHAPS BEAD BLASTED IN THE PAST & THERE IS FRESH DOPE AT THE CASE JOINTS.. /// LOOKING INTO THE SPARK PLUG HOLE SHOWS A NEW +0.40 PISTON AND A LOOK AT THE INTAKE & EXHAUST PORTS SHOWS NEW GUIDES AND A CLEAN EXHAUST VALVE. I WILL THINK THAT THE MOTOR HAS BEEN GONE THRU BUT FOR ARGUMENTS SAKE, LET'S SAY THERE IS A FRESH TOP-END FOR SURE.. THE GEARBOX SHOWS SOME ATTENTION /// THE KICKSTART SHAFT & LEVER HAVE BEEN WORKED ON AT SOMETIME.... I HAVE ORDERED A NEW SHAFT & SPRING & SOURCED A LEVER WITH NICE SPLINES. the wiring & battery tray are in a box and will need to be installed. / WE CLEANED THE POINTS AND SET THE MAG AND THE BIG SINGLE FIRED OFF STRAIGHT AWAY... MOTOR SOUNDED VERY GOOD & THE GEARBOX SHIFTED THRU THE GEARS. CLUTCH PLATES LOOK VERY GOOD WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF AXIAL MOVEMENT AT THE BASKET.///////////// I HAVE NO IDEA IF THAT IS THE CORRECT SEAT. IT'S NEW,,, SHOWING A DOMIRACER LABLE.. A SMALL LYCETTE WOULD CERTAINLY LOOK GOOD ON THIS MOUNT... /// THERE IS A NEW EXHAUST PIPE WITH THE HIDEOUS COCKTAIL SHAKER AFFIXED./////// THE TIRES SHOW GOOD TREAD BUT WILL NEED REPLACED../// THE PAINT ON THE TANK IS NOT AT ALL GREAT BUT THE REMAINDER IS A VERY NICE BLACK. //// HELP WITH A SHIPPER IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE. /// PICK UP IN PERSON IF YOUR DOWN FOR BIKE WEEK.
