Are those Jardines any good?

I love mine. Excellent performance, pleasant growl, not too loud if you're putting around but you can make them holler when you hit the gas. You can still use your center stand (which you can't with all 4/1's), and you can also access the oil filter easily. The header pipes come off individually, so they're a lot easier for one person to handle alone. Can't use the spin on oil filter adapter with them, though. There had to be something .

I have never had them before.
It looks like PO cut the crossover pipe between the mufflers and welded the holes shut.

Not too shabby! Looks like a PO did some parts swapping and/or painting, but not anything crazy.

Thanks, I am really happy with it. I picked her and a special up for $800. for both.

You mean a 17", right? Should say on the sidewall of the tire.

Yeah 17" that's what I said: I guess I didn't type it though lol

I measured the rear wheel, it is an 18".

Sounds like you might have a 16" rear wheel. Here's the diagram for the back wheel on a '78 E, but it seems to me like there's something else you have to do to put a special wheel on a standard. Maybe someone who's done it will weigh in.

Thanks for the diagram

Not really, for the '80 (LG) model. The '81 (LH) had a few things that were significantly different (linked brakes, swirly wheels, different calipers). Can you post a pic of the whole bike??

Thanks

HiCatatonicBug.
I am not sure if the PO put the rear end off a different model or not.
Is there a difference apart from color?

Looks like you have the brake rotors from a Midnight Special on there.

Looks like you have the brake rotors from a Midnight Special on there. I can't tell if the wheels are gold too though... The other black parts look like a MNS too. Is that a MNS? You don't have one listed in your signature.
