Where’s the pics man!?
I will get them up when I get home from work. My computer kept kicking me off the net last night when I was trying to upload them, I got pissed and said to hell with it last night lol.
lol ok I can understand that. A shame you got rid of the 77' though :( air cooled is much cooler.
I should have taken pics of the 77, it was pretty trashed. It had no spark and about 90psi of compression. It was way more of a project then I wanted to mess with right now lol.
And yes your right the air coolers are cooler but the first year YZ's with the radiator behind the plate is pretty neat.
Here are some pics. The new seat cover is just resting on there right now and the red coolant hoses are being replaced with black ones.

Thanks bro. I thought it was a good deal and I couldn't pass it up.

The title is big here in Cali. I'm going to set it up as the camping pit bike.

Yeah I rode it in front of his house before it started pouring rain. I would have got it if it ran or not for that price lol.
Those things were fast in their day. The forks could be troublesome, but nothing that can't be fixed. I think an '84 front end bolts on if you use the triple clamps from the 84 and the t clamp pin transferred from the 82. Supposedly the fix for those.
Well I got the pipe stripped and repainted and the cooling lines changed.

Thanks for the compliments. Its VHT flame proof header paint.
Went to DMV today to put it in my name and get a current sticker for it. Waited an hour just for them to charge me a $126 dollars to register and transfer it into my name. But get this they won't complete the transfer or give me a sticker until I get a bill of sale from the guy I got it from. What kind of shit is that? I had a title signed and dated so I don't get that at all.
