So my goal for 2019 is to take my '80 LTD 1000, as shown in the pics, and convert it back to something more "street worthy". Way, way back in the late '90s, I built it up using bits and pieces left over from my drag racing days and it hasn't been ridden on the street ever since (except for the occasional blast around the block:) ). I have to change out the 2"-over swingarm for a stock length and also install a pair of Konis. Also, have to pull the front forks apart and remove the travel limiters. The stock mag wheels are going back on as the rear wheel, a spun aluminum Performance Machine unit, doesn't have a cush-drive hub or sprocket. Also should rebuild both master cylinders and make up new brake hoses.
The motor is good-to-go. The head is mildly ported with stock-size valves. Megacycle 0.380" lift cams w/shim under buckets. Mikuni RS34's. Wiseco 10.25-1 pistons (stock bore). Falicon Supercrank (lightened MkII) with strengthened factory rods. R&D Motorsports undercut trans. The bike has gone a best of 10.97 @ 124 mph, which translates to about 100 hp - not too shabby, I guess.
Hope to have things in order by late spring/early summer. We'll see...
