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!! cheeky

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.  drink

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 Sad

Seems they are not available as of this time (damnit!)

If anybody has a source:

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........
