Um... no...
Minor update:
I bought a parts bike at CD6. Its a 54M (75 Enduro, right?) with a Cappra motor. Motor is toast - been sitting in the weather for too long and now the crank is now a solid lump of rust.
However, the clutch stuff is all pristine, and the gearbox
feels OK.
The forks and triples will be used on the pre-65 Yamaha racer.
Its now in a zillion bits, so it takes up less room.
The actual project bike has had money spent on it, but not much time.
Quick update on money spent so far. All prices include postage (where applicable):
Bike: $1250.
3x pistons: $650.
Rebore: $88.
New YSS ZR302: $1000.
New sprockets: $50.
Extra new rear sprocket: $25.
New alloy handlebars: $90.
New Maguras: $120 (inc a cheap Gunnar Gasser replica throttle that I won't use).
New kill-switch: $8.
New grips: $12.
New fork seals: $21.
New tyres (Michelins): $260.
Sold the original sized piston on Ebay: -$110 (actually got $130 for it, but I took so long to post it, that I sent it for free).
I ordered a pipe from GMC today, so that's another $420 when its done.
Next up is a set of stainless spokes from John Titman, which will be ~$350 for the set (in postage).
Seat base, seat cover and airbox lid to come from the USA, another $200ish.
Hoping to get the frame 2-paked for a carton of beer.
Then the only big worries are the ignition and the gearbox internals - I think my original budget of $3500 will be in the ball-park.
