Just rode it home. 1991 bought from the original owner with just over 26k on it. Other than getting high-sided early on and cracking the right scoop when (he says) the wind caught it coming off a trailer, the bike is in great shape. It was always garage kept and got synthetic oil changes, and also has 2 brand new Metzlers on it. Also came with a strap on tank bag and the OE windshield.
Great looking fix for the shifter disaster. :good2:
What are your plans for the 1100..... Heli-arc weld the case, find a good 1100/1200 motor as a replacement, or sell the whole thing??

Thanks Fred, I think it's a great looking fix too lol.
I will put the 1100 on CL this weekend as-is for a reasonable price and hope for a taker. If that doesn't work, Scott and I might combine his 84 and mine into one and sell it then split the money.
Oh yeah, forgot it's got a Throttlemeister on it too.
Great looking upgrade Paul !

Well great fix for the shift problem .. The 89 and later models have stronger shift forks. :good2:
I fixed a "wife" problem using this exact same technique!
(sorry, it was there and no one else was taking it)

FJ_Hooligan,
So, how much did you get for Wife1.0 on Craig's List?

93 models hold their price but you actually get less with the rear conversion. .....ouch! (be mindful of swinging arm on all models!) :blum1:
