3000 original miles. Just got done replacing the top end gaskets and pushrods o rings. Single fire ignition. Cv carb swap. Plus found a original decal for the tank dent when it's time to get fixed

thanks but like all bikes that aren't a touring bike....it just doesn't fit me well....mids have my knees in my chest! lol....and the buckhorns really don't inspire aggressive riding, and Im a pro stock exhaust but u cant even hear this bike running! lol...gives a Honda a run for its money!


but its too original to start swapping parts out. I actually found a good write up on the butterfly carb.... im might rework it and try it again so I can use the oem aircleaner

Congrats 800, very nice ride. Hard to imagine 3000 miles on a 28 y/o, wow. Never even got broke in. Somebody obviously stored it pretty well. I'm sure once you get it to fit you right, you'll enjoy it for many years to come.

Is it a low rider ? I thought fxlr's were the only ones with a single front brake rotor.

It's titled as a fxr. I think he fell
over hence the dent and then never rode it again! Lol. Gaskets were so brittle
