on a side note.... have ya caught Stu modding the machinery yet? Hiding wires.... altering the performance?
Not yet BP... I first have to learn how to fix/break all this expensive industrial machinery before mods commence...

Has a 750 Pantah dry clutch engine - some Mikuni flat slides, updated ignition, and.........
Still looking - not a bad buy for $1k (so far anyway)
Gotta be roadworthy for MotoGP........

If you live 3 miles from Laguna Seca it will qualify as road worthy!!
I had a limited that I paid a grand for. Spent about $3k over the next two years keeping her going. I miss that bike, RIP.

It's not an 851, but it is a high compression 750? with cam and head work-
It ran for a few seconds - no knocks or clanks.........
Now if I could just find some new shoes
Seems they are not available as of this time (damnit!)
If anybody has a source:
160/60-16 Rear 130/60-16 front please

It seems I am SOL on tires......
So - we change to 17" and 300mm rotors, keep everything else calipers, forks, clip ons, etc.
And hope for minimal spacers.
Stay tuned........
