I am not sure if you already have the bike or just posted pics of it but here is what I see right away. Likey it is a 1985 model based on the blue seat however it seems to have been recovered so it might be an 84, either way they are essentially the same. I am not sure what pipe is on it but for sure it is NOT a Bassani. The axle is stock with axle spacers added. Carb looks stock. The forks flipped to leading axle bothers me, I would immediately flip it back. No front brakes, probably because the line wouldnt reach after the forks were flipped. Rear brakes have a different fluid resevoir which may or may not work. Left footpeg appears to be missing. The missing chain doesnt bother me (unless the engine case is cracked).
What really worries me is the complete lack of engine mounts..........Oh, and that cylinder head is not from a 200X either.
Sorry if it seems like I am picking it apart but I just want to make sure you know what you are getting into.
