    70 question..

    talked to my uncle the other day. he just got a divorce and needs cash so he told me he would sell me his big red for 150 and i asked him how much he wanted for his 70 and he told me i could have both for $200 the 70 is at my house already it needs rings its missing the front fender to but i already have one laying here for it. Never seen the big red but he said its 95% there Its an 85 just needs the motor put together. I won't get that until around july 20th he lives in ohio and is coming back for a family reunion and said he would bring it with him! here are some pictures of the 70... seems every time i get money to buy stuff for my R i spend it on stuff!

    oh don't mind the mess in the background.

    Probably carb related. I had to richen both of mine up before it would quit stalling everytime I gassed it.

    Took a compression test on it today and it read 30 . Had a buddy over so we figured we would try to get my 84 70 up and running. Got it off a board member cheap the way he talked the motor didn't run. so he included a 110 motor with it... found out that the bolt holes don't line up so went back to the 70 motor. Changed the oil in it put it back in the bike did a compression test and it read 105 stole the carb and tank from the other 70 and shes a runner! now i see why everyone loves them! what a blast!
