Great looking ride Ozzie, and quite a nice history too! No doubt she's seen the best of care, so you should be able to enjoy her for years to come!

Welcome from Connecticut, and enjoy the forum.

Nice looking clean bike. Good luck with it. Did Malcolm or someone else change out the cam? Looks like a smooth replacement cam cover.

There is nothing mentioned in the file about the cam being replaced, although the engine hase been dissassembled, repainted and rechromes, and new head/base/rocker gaskets installed (@ 34900 miles)

This thing does run like a hairy dog until she is hot though, one of the roughest V-twins I've come across in a long time. Pulls great, and cruises smooth, just very rough on idle.

Great bike, Ozzie,.....mine's an '87,....#284 of 800,.....yours is the first I've seen with the same paint scheme on the tank.
I doubt Liz Taylor ever rode on the back of mine, but she probably did on yours.........enjoy..
