  • Cheap Avanti, first look

    Just got the cheap ebay Avanti in, so far mostly good news. Hog troughs are fine, body is great, but some bad news for N8. There is a extra bracket on the side of the engine that does not belong on a R1.<g>

      Just wondering, JDP. What is your plan-build it, or part it[?]

        My brain says parts it, my hearts making me give it a chance. Engine is out, steam cleaned and painted, cleaned under the hood. Engine is free with good compression and oil pressure. Spent the day working on replacing a side window and regulator.

        The P.O. just took the damn thing apart and quit, now I need to put it back togeather at least.
