I had been looking for clean, all original, one owner bike for over a year when I found this one. I wanted Curry but when I saw this one I couldn't resist. You just don't see many green ones to begin with and this one had it all. After I got it I went through everything to make it a daily rider. The Odometer is intermittent and I cannot say for sure how long that's been that way but I can't have been that way for long based on the condition of the bike. It runs smoother than my R80/7 and get way more attention.
New push rod seals, cylinder base gaskets, new points, all new fluids except for fork oil. Rebuilt the carburetors and petcocks. New fuel lines and filters. Tires look good so I left them alone. The final drive and wheel drive splines were replaced to the tune of over $1000 dollars by the original owner as well. The wixom bags were painted to match the bike years ago and are wired to the running lights. I don't like the wire routing myself and would have re worked the wires had I not found the bike I originally looking for. A Curry toaster! So as much as I like the looks of this green one in the garden I'm limiting myself to one toaster at a time and letting this one go. Thanks for looking and you can contact me anytime with any questions you might have.

Milan Show: Moto2 tried and tested
Tue, 02 Nov 2010The insanity of Moto2 doesn't seem like the right home for the elegance of the Rizoma brand. But the Rizoma ProGuard system has helped secure the levers of Toni Elias on his road to championship success in the inaugural Moto2 season. The example above was on an attractive Rizoma-enhanced BMW S1000RR, but the lever guards are not limited to sports bikes, they were also visible on Yamaha's FZ8. The patented design can tilt up to 10 degrees providing full lever coverage and can be added by simply replacing the bike's existing bar-ends.
