They had issues with top end oiling and I think there was a better oil pump produced for them.

Seems the fellow parked it inside an old school bus. With no front end? Its gonna be fun for sure getting it outta there...

Remove the valve covers and check the cams, cam followers and rockers for pitting and grooving. It was a problem with these as well as the Intercepters. No real proper solution for the problem either. Also check for spark, these run 2 small boxes called ignition boxes, and they are NLA from Honda for some time now. If the cams and rockers look good, the skies the limit, you have s good one, have fun? ??

Good to know Curtis, do you know if the igniter boxes will work on a GL500? I might be interested in those

Thanks Steve, but mine is just about to the end. Just a few small parts to get and a little more work and then fire her up. It's the time thing that's hard to come by

I have s Seca 750 in the basement right now and I'm working on a deal for a RZ500 right now and I also have a Vinson in the wings too. Thanks for the likes on my GL500 Cafe. The Kawi triples are few and far between down in these parts? ?
