    bought this with the sole intention of parting it out and helping some members here.

    As of now the exhaust system, front signals, tachometer, front fender and master cylinder are tentatively sold

    I do not know the miles on it but I did get it to run so the motor is good. The carbs will obviously need a cleaning/rebuild.

    If there is something you’d need me to check for you I will be happy to do so if I can. Just send me a pm or whatever I can add more pictures too

    The side covers do not have any broken tabs
    The back rest is in need of reupholstering as well as both seats

    Let me know what ya need. Thanks. Joe

    No replies as of yet here so I put all the available parts for it on to devils bay minus the complete motor.

    If anyone wants the motor..... it does run... I haven’t checked anything and don’t plan to.... I’m leaving it all intact. 100$ local pickup in Woodhull IL

    Thanks. Joe

    If you still have the engine this summer I'd be interested. I can't travel that way until then.

    If you're talking about the ones that say 5 valve for a water cooler X model then no. Those are specific to those bikes. I'm sure there are plenty of other parts that may interchange though.

    I just put them into the scrap pile last week. The springs had some rust on them. eBay has plenty available though fairly cheap

    Do you have the starter? And does it work?
    Not the solenoid but the actual starter itself.
