My New 82 750 LTD

Just picked this up recently:
1982 750 LTD with 4800 original miles. Went to the NC mountains with my son last weekend to try it out:



2nd day it started running rough and idling strange. Fuel bowls had all kinds of strange looking crap in them. After removing tank (which looked pristine), I found these inside.....

Apparently, the tank lock came apart at some point and the pieces dropped in and were left to do their thing....

Other than that, it was a super weekend. This is really a great bike.

Lifes journey is not to arrive at the grave safely and in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, shouting ''Holy sh*t, what a ride!''

Stayed in Asheville and rode S. on the Blue Ridge Parkway then came back and went N. . Great road, not too crowded and perfect weather.
