well i sold some guy some rims and found
this thing in his garage. I picked it up for $300
they told me it had a fuel problem but the real
problem was you could not put fuel in it because
the fuel cap was [freak]ed up so i found a new one
had it tuned up and got some new tires for it run great.

ive always wanted to do a v4 fighter. id see if any modern suspension will fit on there, get a new headlight assembly, do something with the sub frame (maybe rc51 rear end) to make it single seat, new rear sets, possibly even different wheels and call it a day

Those are very fun little bikes... just be sure not to tip over on it, they had a history of catching fire when tipped over with the engine fully hot. Fuel spills out of the down draft carbs. Ride her as is

wow now this is a total cult bike. They are popular on the basis that it was one of the first sportbikes and also the v-four is a rare comodity as well. $200 is a freakin' steal for it also. If you're willing to part it out on ebay you could probably make a couple grand... just be careful. The reason its so sought after is the fact that 95% of them are no longer with us due to the fact that the bike is fast but when it came to braking or getting round a corner..fogetaboutit!
