Looks like a fun project!! It really doesn't look to be in too bad shape to start with. Are there any deeper engine/trans problems or is it mostly cosmetic? Keep us posted!  |

Looks like more than a $900 bike to me! It also looks like the cosmetic issues are some sort of vandalism? Do you have a plan for the mods? Keep us posted.

it was vandalized and totaled by the insurance company. i rode it home and it runs perfect. parked it and started working on it. when i get it finished it will be off to the dealer for a thorough inspection.

Dude that's not too bad. Very jealous over the guages. Just get it painted and the seat reupholstered and looks like your good to go. |

Low budget buildup? Ebay is your friend. Looks like the seat just needs a new cover, and I think Sargent sells 'em fairly cheap. The tank scratches probably won't buff out, but it's worth a shot. Otherwise, you're in for a new paint job. The guy who just did my tank and fender did an awesome job, but he ain't cheap.
Definitely keep us posted.

Ok. You scored a '99 M750 for $900. Great deal!!! Here's what needs to be changed: Timing belts (no way of knowing how old they are and they're cheap) Tires (the ones on there look to be really old) Fuel filter Re-bleed hydraulics If it's been sitting long, the vertical carburator will have gunk in it from sitting (b/c it sits lower when on the sidestand than the horizontal one does) so check that out if it's running odd. As far as a build goes, the 'Parts for Sale' and 'Parts Wanted' boards are your friend! Good luck, and great score!!! |
