I bought this bike for my first bike but took it to don and sons cycle and they told me it had low compression and they were going to have to tear into it and figure it out but I don't have the money for all that right now I was thinking that it was going to be a coil or something because it hasn't even set for a year the license expired in March of this year. Unfortunately just don't have the money to finish it the bike is in great shape just a little surface rust in a couple spots but has been taken care extremely well don't have pictures as of yet but it's the red with gold paint job. There were only 1200 of these made this year I believe looking to sell quickly was asking 1,000 cash and or possible trades

I wouldn't mind doing something with the bike, but it's pretty technical. Dual overhead cam with torsion bar valve springs. Lots of cam chain guides with a long chain. Parts will be difficult to find. Keep that in mind when you price it. Low compression will mean possible burnt valves, a cam that jumped time, hole in a piston. But still a good project when you see what's been done with them. Good luck.

Very sorry to hear that Mike. Always a scary prospect when you buy a non running bike.
Good luck with the sale.

So is it fixed or waiting to be fixed?
If waiting to be fixed how much are they asking for the repair?

I do still have it and I've decided that I can't quite let it go for 5 since I had to pay them guys 150 just to look at it. You are more than welcome to come take a look and talk to me about it in person. I think you really will be amazed of how nice of shape it's in you can call or text me at 417 214 6350
