My restored XN85

Hi tango

I also have one of these rare beasts..........mine has a seized Turbo wastegate which wont allow any boost to build up.

Its partially stripped to try and sort the problem.

They'd look nice done in 13L silver! Dont like the greeny silver colour they are painted in!

Parts are expensive when not available from the distributor. Saw a brand new tank on e-bay and the guy want $1500. He refused my offer of $500. I ended up buying a complete parts bike with a gas tank for $400 = plus $300 in gas to go get it. Ended up it was a complete bike with papers.

Nice XN5 - Only 30 came into Canada - Very few on the raod here - Parts are rare as hen's teeth. Mine is also in great condition - just had the cases polished as they were getting pitted. My #2 XN85 is ready for assembly with newly painted body work. Decals by Bdesigns.


Cheers

Didnt even know you had one Dave.

Nearly sorted mine, just need to sort the fuel leak from the injector rail, fit tyres, and do the fork seals.

Should be ready in a couple of years then.............

Off you trot now................
