      Hi Kris,
      Looks a little rough, but should clean up nice. It maybe old School, but the rear end suspension looks pretty refined. Did you get a wheelie bar with it? Looks like something for Bill to cut his teeth on.

          Is this the one Bill has been saying he wanted to use to build? Let me know if you need any parts that I can help with. Ray.

              I moved from Rosamond a few years ago,it was getting "GHETTO" and crime was getting bad. Tehachapi has great winters with lots of snow and cold weather for bike building. Stop by on the way by when you visit your son and I will show you my herd.

                VERY ROUGH Jim, it will take awhile to get together and fix what this guy messed up and did not do correctly. Bill has to get that engine done first

                      Sounds great. I agree, Rosamond is "Ghetto" but the location works well for my son, he works as a Gov't contractor at Edwards A.F.B.

                              those are "MC" wheels.
                              i never really new who made the rotors you have..maybe kosman/PM or somebody.
                              i have a couple of those rotor's in my stack.
                              1100 cradle conversion and a 90-ish GSXR body.. circa maybe 20 years ago or less.
                              i see a square sided slick on it so someone had raced it in the last several(10 or so) years.
                              i still have an old round sided 8.5x18" thats about dust..not sure why i haven't pitched it???

                                Do you want to get rid of one? The back disc got hot a few times and started to melt and oblonged the holes in the disc.
