As winter rolls around I'm considering trading my '73 for either a later model 650 (for various reasons) or an SR500. As it's cold in Chicago and I'm in the thick of a CB160 project, I'm in no rush, just putting this out there for consideration. Let me know if you're interested or have any questions. I'll also sell it cash if you make me a decent offer.
- PAMCO
- Green Monster coil
- Started delete, done proper w/mikexs blockoff, internal gears gone except for the one you need to split the case to remove. I still have all the gears.
- Cam chain guide and tensioner replaced/new
- Valve seats lapped
- Linked BS38's from a '76 installed
- Bates style throttle, new cable
- JBM Carb holders/boots
- UNI Filters, have stock boxes and good filters
- All gauges removed, proper block-offs installed
- New clutch discs and plates
- New clutch needle bearing
- Newish sealed battery
- New, reinforced sump filter
- Shorty glasspack muffler on the 2-1, not beautiful, but sounds awesome
Yada yada yada. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting. The bike has loads of compression. Charging system works fine. If you offer me a trade, it has to be running well, I'm just finishing a second CB160 full motor teardown/rebuild and I'm not interested in motor work for a while.
Thanks,
Adam
