This bike was rescued from a barn in Hanford, CA and then restored and rebuilt to its former glory. I was a huge fan of that fairing which I believe is a beautiful example of industrial design. It also exudes a real sense of 80s cool that I think is just coming back in vogue. However I know it is not to everyone’s taste, but still makes is a very efficient shape to spend the day behind. The bike is very solid, with that smooth 800cc boxer motor providing turbine like propulsion, so if you are looking for a tourer or the base for your custom bike, this is it. Clear South Dakota title.Here is a list of things in no particular order and things I can remember off the top of my head. Please ask any and all additional questions.1. Frame, swing arm, forks, engine covers, and brackets (etc.)—stripped and powder coated.2. Engine rebuilt from the crank up. New: seals everywhere; large and small end bearings; piston rings; reconditioned heads; Timing chain, gears, bearings and tensioner.3. Misc. New: Clutch plates, fiber disk, and diaphragm spring; front brake pads and rear shoes, steering head, swing-arm, and wheel bearings; brake calipers rebuilt; steel braided brake lines; BING carbs rebuilt with new stuff; reconditioned alternator, starter, and solid state voltage regulator; FINAL DRIVE rebuilt with new bearings, seals, and output splines; PC680 battery; switchgear.4. Little things: tires have about 2k but still have plenty of life left, paint is newish as well but has a few chips and shown in photos, seat has had a few rips but were repaired, however you can still see the scars if you look. The neutral switch weeps occasionally from where is goes to the gearbox. In summary, a solid bike that will give many additional miles of adventure in style. P.S. The odometer is a replacement and the bike does not have 90,000 miles…the original had fewer than 30k, and the rebuilt engine is under 2k. I have the receipts for the parts and work to back this up. If you fly to Fresno airport I will pick you up and drive you to my house if you want to fly and ride.
