It looked like this when I bought it.
Carbs were so badly seized that the needles had fused to the top of the float bowl.
Engine was free though.
Every chrome part was rusty but the engine and frame were suprisingly good.
Bars had to go along with that awful seat!!!

Dazza215:
Looks a bit different now.
Complete carb rebuild, bought new bars, and a seat.
New oil, filters, plugs, points and condensors, etc etc
Got it running last weekend, all was going well until the oil light came on, then it went out when revved but came on higher up the rev range, revved higher, then light on again.
I'm taking the sump plate off this week and seeing if the oil pump screen is full of debris and maybe service the pump.
if this doesnt cure it then its going to be a complete engine rebuild i suspect.

That is the most fugly seat I've ever clapped eyes on, the mind boggles.   Matches the handlebars for poor taste.   I do hope you've dropped them into your wheely bin and not sold them

Dazza215:
They are in the garage Mike, I'll sell them to you if you want. lol.

mike the bike:
Thanks mate, they'll look good on my 400.
