| OK. So I clicked on E bay again. Blame it on me. I got the bike pretty cheap but the shipping wanted me to get another job! No engine as you can tell but I have one so there! See as this story unfolds. |
So after I got this bike, I noticed that it
was a race bike but I dont think it was
ever laid down. It had 5K miles on it
and no engine. No problem. I started
to clean each and every part one by
one. It was a pretty painful thing to do
because I had to take each area apart
just to get all the gunk and crap off the
bike. While I was at it, I installed
some turn signals I had laying around
and also replaced the over sized tires
to the correct size tires. Oh, by the
way, these tires are Dunlop TT900 GP
tires. There is no fear for these tires.
They are made like bubble yum! Also
had some extra parts that I had and
installed like the rear grab bar and
mirrors. Before you know it, a
complete bike (almost!)

This bike is actually a 4LO from Europe. In the United States, this bike was never an official imported model.
Only in Canada was where you will find them but some others came to the USA and ended up in someones
hands. Here you can see the original break in tach sticker still there. You can also see the pass switch and the
headlight switch. Both of these switches are not US spec in nature.

The 4LO is alive now. It
has Microns so you Brit
boys may already know
how they sound. Click
here to hear it run!
