Bom
Thanks fellas, since arriving in Toronto I had to replace head gasket. As the engine was open, we went ahead and replaced the rings (still on stock bore), de-glazed the cylinders, installed new valve guide seals and sundry other bits. For next season, I have a brand new Marving chrome 4-1 exhaust waiting to be installed.Last edited by Guest; 01-01-2012, 09:19 PM.Comment

Very nice motorcycle there, Jim. Of course, i'm a bit partial to S models.
And, when you replace your stock exhausts with the Marving, i'd be happy to take those old ugly 4/2 chromers of yer hands!

Charlie, we are all sooooo glad to be back in N. America, you have no idea.
Frank, when I get my act together (might take a while), I'll put the stock exhausts up for sale here with some good pics so folks can get a good idea of their condition.
Pete, Mark, GateKeeper, thanks for the nice comments, I really enjoy riding the old girl (about 5000km last year), she's no hangar queen.Comment

Nicely done. I don't usually comment on BOMs as they can be a bit...overdone.
But this pic is very nice, indeed.Comment
