88 auto is in the house :)

Some one flipped it good and bent the silencer mount






I had a feeling that decal placement was very odd.

My '86 and both of my '88 models have suffered the same chain/brake lever rash on that sidecover, I simply bend the mount point out enough for the cover to clear the chain at full suspension compression.
Tony.

I had my boot push 1 in as the bike was compressing last weekend, it never broke or chewed it.
I heard it in time.

Got back on the bike tonight.

1 more thing hurt from what ever, poor bike... Bolt is bent bad and cover smashed.
At first, i was like wow its so round still and nice, then i saw it.

what are the most common parts needed or fail regular

You are looking at them in the photo above, first gear clutch springs, shoes, drum and kickstart pawls!!

That cover looks like it's had a major impact?

call or text this number about some old inventory, NOS stuff
775-338-7163
he has some of it

It was traveling in incognito! It's safer that way!

Thank You 2premo, been in touch with him and bought a few things..

Bike is still apart, still waiting to ride an auto.

Got lucky and bought some of the last NOS stuff i could find.
Not all parts are here yet or made yet.
When the other shoes show up i will compare wear to new on what i have and see whats best.
New springs and ebay plate
Replacing swing arm bearing and got bushing spacers being made. ( a dozen lol)
10 holes tigged up in the S/A and the crack at the front, waiting Enduro decals.
Wheel bearings replaced and repack triple clamps.
Fork Boots and new oil.
Shock boot from Phil.
Wet sand shrouds and polish, replace R.S. number plate
Like new spare aftermarket pipe and a better silencer.
New seat cover from pit-replica
Back to stock kick stand
more, more.....

what did you wet sand them with
what did you end up getting from Chris??

800,1500 and then used a Mothers head light restoration kit with the power ball and polishing compound.

Shoes and springs, a few different ones. 1 set was for a 4 speed but will resell them.

was the agent for the wet sand water?

No, i did use Comet with water at times.

Bushing spacers from my buddy.

Got things rolling now.

Kickstand back to OEM.

All the parts came in.

So i have some NOS 390/420 parts to sell i think.
The primary shoes in brass, springs and the hub center are not 3 speed at a glance.


Starting to look like 1 of my bikes more and more...

Just love this era, the 87/88 2 stroke.

The machine is so close to running for the first time in Canada.
Made the skid plate and changed the pipe.
Went through the transmission.

Looking good. What pipe is it?
