    I've got an LG I purchased years ago on ebay from the original owner. He was too scared of it to ride it. I usually ride my sidecar rig and the LG has been stored for years. It has a bit over 4000 miles and I'm still kicking myself for replacing the original tires.

      came with low rise bars in black chrome...


      I used bars and mirrors from my 81 xj650 parts bike for the time being.

        4W1000108 date 7/80. would like to find original parts such as bars, mirrors, foot pegs, turn signals, "exhaust" has a 4 into 1 that sounds good I just don't like the look.

        I want to install this fairing.....I need a 4 or 8 inch wind shield



        and maybe modify the brackets from this set up, but hesitant to destroy it cuz it is still in good shape.



        maybe sell this one from my 81 xj650H parts bike.

          That is a very early 81 model. Very nice looking MNS!! The bars, mirrors, foot pegs and signals you can probably find over time.

          The exhaust though, that is one of the "Holy Grails", a good condition true MNS stock exhaust, that is not on an almost perfect bike to start with, that is like finding a four leaf clover growing in the bottom of the ocean. Might be out there somewhere, but it will take alot of time and most likely ALOT of money when you do find it.

          As to the windshields, sorry, I do not use one so no help there.

            81 LH parts

            Andreas Weiss is parting out a 80 MNS right now. Exhaust is shot but for I everything your looking for is intact.

              I have an 80 MNS. All stock except the handlebars. I would sell the exhaust, but the rest of the bike would come with it. Actually i don't think i could sell the third love of my life.
