If it is still available would e one heck of a deal perhaps. Sat a while, but looks very nice. May be a substitute engine perhaps, has the kick starter on it but says it is an 80.

Dooohh

Yep, that would explain the kick starter on an 80 model. Now that I look it does appear a bit short in the cylinders for an 11. Interesting that a bike in such good shape has no side cover huh?...maybe because it says 850 on it?

I always wonder about the no key, no title bikes. I looked at several before I found my 11, even talked to the BMV here in Ohio and they told me basically, its a parts bike until you can find the previously titles owner and get to signed over to you.

What a waste of so many good looking and in some cases good running (some had keys) bikes. 11 or even as an 850, that is a nice lookin bike for $250. Of course, if every valve is bent and it threw a rod through the other side of the cylinder, well...
