I ended up buying an 81 1100, so far found the following to be repaired. Any more suggestions as what or where to look for repair would be greatly appreciated.
Just a little history of the bike, from the owner that I purchased from,
Was told it belonged to his mother, she parked it when it would not charge, told by the shop mechanic to her. He thought it would be fun to restore and started taking it apart.
Looks like most all the parts are here, the headlight seems funny to me, like it had a fairing on it at one time.
I want to go back naked with the bike if I can locate the parts needed for the front end.
1. Gas tank rusted inside.
2. Carbs need cleaning and rebuilding. working on now, just got to get parts and tear into.
3. Of course a new batt.
4. Brakes to be rebuild from handle to pads, foot pedal to pads.
5. Tires
6. Starter Rebuilt, working on that now.
7. Complete fluid change front to rear.
8. Exhuast to replace. Baffles in bad shape, headers are in great shape though. LOL
9. Stator Testing.
10. Timing Belts to be replaced. Along with a good tune up.
Is there anything that I am missing on checking out, before the first ride after the work has been done?
Thanks
