Yeah, no shit. The bike was crashed on it's left side and some genius thought, "Hey, I know..."
It's not gorgeous. Maybe at lunch I'll start the list of what is very wrong. But to start... where is the left muffler? So they just capped...
Good news! Glad air worked. Glad SOMETHING worked. Awesome. My particular Master I use must be a good ratio. I re-use seals a lot. I clean...

Nah, I wasn't starting anything. Just curious about the weight. The numbers from an 84 500 are pretty impressive tho.
Is literally what I said 4 (5?) bikes ago. Ugh. NOW I have no space. I thought I was out before. I'm gonna get rid of all of my 1st Gen 750...
