Acquired 80LG today

[mro]

Thanks to a tip from DriverRay I was able to get a 80LG today for $100.00

Probably not the best deal
Bikes missing:
ALL electrical components (except harnesses and rear turn signals)
Rear caliper, rear brake lever, brake hoses, shift lever, as well as some other misc. parts. (seat is a mass of duck tape, pan looks OK)

Worst of all? I'll need to pull the head. Sounds feels/like its got #2 piston hitting a valve.

Got a cool looking gold filter box with "1100" emblem on it.
Bikes all black with a little gold. Dunlop elites front/back (good shape) Tank has a couple dents I should be able to fix. Exhaust needs major work if salvageable.

So I'm happy.
Now need to find another bike for parts!!!

I will have a lot of the misc parts you will need. just send me an e-mail with a list of needed items. I have a good pile of electrical parts and rear brake stuff,shift lever,rear brake lever etc. andreashweiss@yahoo.com also have a engine head disassembled ( cast alum was road rashed but internals were fine)

I did get a LOT of spare electrical with my '78. Some of the parts will cross into your "new" machine. Let me know what you need as you start to get it together.

About the bike. Pulled off the head for a look see. Found a small screw sitting on top of #2 piston!!! No one has tried to crank it w/screw there, no damage at all. Carbs were off when I got it, but don't see any easy way for it to have gotten in there.

Thanks agin.
Bike needs just about every thing electrical. So when time permits I give you a jingle. Will be a little while before I actually will need any parts. Since I've pulled the head, think I will go "ahead" and pull the engine and fix this puppy up right the first time.

andreashweiss, should I manage to make any money this month I have already planned to email you( about half the stuff in the $30 box I could use.

Never put time table for my projects, start one and go crazy and finish right away, while others years later are still in need of attention.

Still waiting on carb parts for my 80G from MikesXS, need to check why so long, been over a week!
