This one got to me with 4into2 as well. My restoration shop produced the pipes for me. It would take a real enthusiast to see that at first glance though. Super happy with how it turned out. Likely some better pictures soon.

In this case (he is 86 now) I will have to settle for the smile on his face when he saw it. Combined with talking about rides he used to take me on make this effort well worth it to me.

Amazing, and nostalgic at the same time. My dad had the same model bike when I was a kid. My goal was to make this happen while he was still alive, and I was able to make it happen.

Purchased this bike from another guy on this forum nearly 5 years ago. Had planned on restoring it myself, and quickly found I was in way over my head. Been a while, but back from restoration and finally put some miles on it today.

I have a larger sissy bar w/ pad currently, and want to go back to the original part.

Looking for part 84100-425-870 if you have it from the Ltd... RR, Bumper I think they call it

Still for sale?

Appreciate the replies.. in this case I took an existing 48x40 pallet, attached a sheet of 3/4" plywood to the base. Then built a crate that will go on top of that. This will also be truck shipped so hopefully a bit more safe that way.

I am getting set to ship my engine to have it restored and wanted to see if this group had any advice on shipping. Currently I have built a crate (using a pallet for a base) and that piece is complete. Wondered what thoughts are for securing the engine to the crate. I had been thinking about...

Trying to decipher this.. reads as if you have a set of 3-3 to sell from a 79 750k? Is that correct?

Yes please!

Still have these? They fit a '79 750 Ltd? I have a set of 4-2 that came with my bike that I would be interested in swapping.

Purchased from the ebay seller and the cover is practically flawless. The tabs etc are in great condition. Off to the painters!

Good callout amc49... I just removed the carb bank a couple of days ago myself. After reading this I rechecked the rubbers at the air box and sure enough.. cracked.

Cool.. so if I was taking these all to a paint shop they should be able to use the Ltd Edition badges I have on my existing (cracked) side cover and attach them to a replacement I buy on ebay?
