Suzuki RM description

 Needs restoration, but mostly there and complete...Has a new piston and rings-previous owner put them in and did not put pipe on yet, so i looked up exhaust port and it was indeed bright and shiny new piston with no scuff marks whatsoever..With that said I have not been able to start bike...hit it with some carb cleaner in airbox and it fired, but has not run for any amount of time...just a couple seconds, so I am pretty sure the spark is good, may need carb cleaned, crank seals?....has no cracks in frame or aluminum swingarm, or wheels, fork tubes are rusty between triple clamps, but I dont think so in seal travel area...pics show a like 79 or 80 tank, but it does not have that anymore as it cracked..I just bought a good used 78 rm400 tank and it is on there now...like it is supposed to be...throttle tube is broken, needs new one...like I say good candidate for restoration, located in san antonio texas   no title, dirt bikes in texas did not have titles before 1996

Except for promotional events or pre- and post-race interviews, the faces of our racing heroes are shielded under protective helmets with tinted visors. You don’t see the same human emotion in their faces like you can when soccer players score a goal or baseball players hit a home run.

It was good to catch up with my old mate Daryl Beattie last weekend in Misano. Daryl was pushing Mick Doohan hard for the 500cc World Championship in 1995 until he high sided and broke his collar bone in Assen mid way through the year. He eventually finished runner up in the series but then some fairly big tumbles from his Lucky Strike Suzuki in 1996 brought his career to a premature end.
