1980 750 LTD Asking for guidance
Okay, Here's my deal.
Always wanted a motorcycle but was never able to get one until I was in my mid 50S. I know virtually nothing about bikes but purchased a 1980 750 LTD. It had an oil leak so I pulled the engine and got a gasket kit.....without a manual.
Welllll, as usual I got a vision.
"Heyyyy, this could be a cool Bobber!" Soooo, I stripped it down, recording every step so I could reassemble it later. changed this and welded that, painted it all and now need to fix that oil leak. Among other things!
My first question,
( I am sure I will have a million more.) is, where's the best place to find a manual that wont cost alot? Hoping to tear apart, Rebuild and paint out the engine before reinstall. And, fingers crossed, ride it next summer.
Any help is appreciated, Thanks!!
