    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

It has a chain, you can see it in the picture. I don't think the tank would be an issue, it sits so low that, if it were rear-ended, the rider would be dead anyway. :)
 
I'm guessing it's a shaft drive engine unless there is no chain installed.
It did say it's an '81 650, so probably is a shaft. :o

Not sure where Larry saw a chain, I see what appears to be a shaft leading from the engine to the car differential.

Appears to be NO rear brakes on that one. Wonder if the front end would slide when/if he hit the brake? :D
 
I think I can see a chain on there too...maybe. Oh and not all 81's were shafties. :P

Says all you need to know about the seller.

Is that an Oregon plate on it?
 
He's in Milwaukee, Oregon.
It's a small town just south of Portland.

That thing is an abomination. The engine paint is worn, the brake reservoir isn't painted, it looks like it was rattle canned with all the parts on the bike, the seat is a piece of vinyl wrapped around what might be a dead animal, the front lower cowl looks like a cut piece from another bike and it's actually touching on the exhaust, and I'd forgive him for doing this and riding it if he loved it but he's asking for 4500 bucks!
It should be noted that the town of Milwaukee, OR has a serious meth problem.

looking for motorcycle mechanic that has worked on a 1974? goldwing 1100gl. It is my father in-laws bike, he brought it to me last year to rebuild carbs and some other stuff... I am looking for a mechanic (or just someone that knows what they are doing) that will come to me. the carbs have been rebuilt, they just need installed along with the fairings and a bunch of other ****. will need metric tools.. this is a mess as i did not mark anything. I can put it back together but i am just too damn lazy. I will not pay some bs $75 an hour. but i will pay $20 an hour, $100 min $200 max...I am not getting a penny for this, i just want it out.

I am buy bestbuy in menomonee falls. Thanks Avery

He threw parts all over and expects someone else to figure out what he did and
repair it in less time than it took him to destroy it.

That will happen. :rolleyes: :lol:
