1986 Yamaha BW80

#1
I know I don't post much here but I do like to document my projects (somewhat). Here's my latest project, I sold off the RV90 for those that remember.

I picked this winter project up last month, I'm a little early but couldn't pass it up. Seller wanted $125 and I was the first to show up and offered him $100 and he took it.

It's all there (except a title) the oil pump is off and was told it didn't work. Seller threw in a new sprocket and chain. I'm just starting to tear it down, found the kick start lever threads were completely stripped. After getting it off of there the kick start shaft doesn't look too bad. We will see if I can get another lever on there. Other than that the gas tank had more water than gas in it and the carb is calcified and kind of rotten on the inside. Somebody along the way got lazy and welded on a brake shaft onto another brake shaft. I'm sure the geometry is all wrong now.

Anyway... Wish me luck.
























Here's my previous project BEFORE and AFTER:
