    Looks like it's actually in Penn Valley, Nevada County, about 15 minutes from me.

    I did a '85 VF1KR project a long time ago, not sure I have the energy for another. Looks a little rough to me.

    70K ?? higher mileage, likely may have low compression may need valves or rings---can u even buy new bearings or piston rings ? may have gear troubles if it was abused, oil seldom changed, etc needs tires and sprockets plus a chain----still a good price if u can do the work and have time and $$$---just for the rarity of it :cool: id be tempted if something like that came up locally---we just need to save and take care of these old crates the best we can

    +1 Squirrel. It would be a year or two project for me. It would include a engine rebuild.

    Ran outta cash and effort currently. If the VTR is kicking my butt, I can’t even think of this one. +2 squirrel.
