I have a 1970 drum brake front end in real nice shape. The fork tubes have some pitting and a little flaking but the sliders, brakes and front rim are in beautiful shape. The front fender is there but has a hole drilled in top of it about a 1/4" dia. Pics of the bike are there, also has a...

SOLD.. All original 1972. Matching motor, most of the chrome is very good, rims, exhaust, fenders etc.. Minor pitting on the blinkers and turn signal stalks. Rear fender is the worst, kinda peeled a bit. Mufflers all solid, no holes or dents. The tank was thoroughly cleaned and sealed with...

I've been trying to get my stock 73 running right for weeks. It runs good when I first fire it up after opening the petcocks, then the left cylinder cuts out. I have swapped plugs and leads and the right cyl always fires and runs great. I found tonite that the left cylinder cuts in and runs good...

Both of my petcocks have full flow in the off position, mega PITA when trying to work on carbs. Is there parts available to rebuild these or do I have to go aftermarket? Thanks guys.

I searched thru the Pamco related topics but most talked of complete coil failure or Pamco board issues. I put a Pamco and his mid grade black coil on my stock 73 last fall, I have maybe 100 miles on the system. I have no spark on the left cylinder now. Maybe I had the ignition on w/ out...

Travis, are either of the tshirts still available that you were selling earlier? I picked up one of each but wanted to grab a few more! Thanks, they are well made and take the wash well.

Anyone know if we can still order the XS 650 print by Dan Peirce? I got mine all framed up and my buddy loved it so much he wants one. Truly, mechanical art!

I have an 81 special I parted out and am left with a nice 36 spoke rear wheel assy. The chrome is good w/ only 2 small areas of rust/pits. $100 plus shipping. Nice stock seat and pan, no rips or cracks. $75 plus shipping. Have a dk blue/black tank, no dents and the inside is good. $100...

Been trying to buy an alloy rear wheel assy from Matt for a couple months. I made the first mistake by sending my Paypal to the wrong email. On July 25th I Paypal'd Matt $100 for the wheel again and have not seen anything yet? Have emailed him several times since then to get a refund as I no...

I just had the stock seat on my 73 TX refoamed and covered. Got a nice cover from the place in Thailand that sells them on Ebay. The chrome trim is bent up and flattened and I'd like to replace it with somthing. Doesnt have to be oem, just some nice bendable chrome or aluminum to finish off the...

I have a nice drum brake front wheel assy I'd like to use but the chrome on the tubes is shot. Will the 34mm tubes from a later TX or XS fit those chrome drum brake lowers? If not, does anyone have a decent set for sale? Thx

I always seem to cue up my Collective Soul CD when I'm done wrenching and relaxing with a beer or three. I love track 7, I beleive the song name is "Gel". The guitarist has a great riff going in that tune. I love the whole album! I'm 48 and I think about what my dad was listening to when I...

I was looking thru a scrambler build thread on a UK (?) 650 site and someone threw this picture of a scrambler but no more info. Does anyone know any more about this great looking bike? I'm looking to build one myself but wanted to get some more info on the pipes, the tank, and the seat...

Is $400 a reasonable price for a good running 81? Would this also be a good pick to do a cafe build on?

I just picked up this XS from a local guy. He said it was a 72 but I thought they had a disc by then? I am looking for somthing to build into a cafe style bike and didnt know if I'd be better off overall working with a newer style bike 74 and up or one of this vintage? The dude also has an 81...

I installed a Pamco ignition on a 73 I'm trying to get on the road and am wondering if I should see the timing mark advance w/ a timing light as the revs rise? The bike starts great but the revs seem to struggle as it increases. The ignition is timed correctly but I see that the marks dont...

I'm looking for a good working speedo for my 73 TX, I have good chrome and plastic base but my mechanicals are SHOT... Any help would be awesome!:):)

I'm in the process of rebuilding a 73 TX and noticed there is no side to side headlight adjustment screw or assy in my present headlight. I compared one w/ a 75 bucket I have and the units are different? Anyone have some insight or parts stash:shrug: Pics show my 73 on the left and a 75...

My green faced 73 speedo is shot but the housing and chrome cover is in great shape. Are there any other year speedos that I could use the guts from that would fit my 73 unit? If so I'm in the market for one... Thx all, the knowledge here never ceases to amaze me:thumbsup:

I've got a stock 73 TX with no chain guard and am looking for a good clean one that will fit. I have no idea which years will fit so if you have one that will fit drop me a line. Thx
