Beautiful bike, although I would have gone with shiny black and pinstripe for the rear fender too, personally. Other than that, I have no complaints :D

Is the riding position comfortable? I assume the boxer configuration would make forward controls impossible?

Nice bike! Last time I bought the same R80. I know it's sound stupid but during ride I have to use the clutch when I want to change gears? Thanks in advance for help.

Hey, you didn't choke it? This a cold start? ... To avoid (embarrassingly) running out of fuel, you might want to only turn on ONE fuel valve at a time - it does have the cross-feed, right?
@mysticapprentice 3 жыл бұрын
pretty sure both fuel valves have on/off/reserve positions though...

wow thats so beautiful. How much does a restored r80 cost?
@russellstafford9770 4 жыл бұрын
Darthpotato94 thanks mate. Beauty is somewhat in the eye of the beholder at this point. For a good runner, you’ll be at around 5-7k AUD.. frame off resto like this will be closer to 10k AUD.

All good points. Very disappointing. I also noticed that the tyres weren’t original so I’ve actually set that bike on fire and put it out of its misery.
@zenrider_9622 2 жыл бұрын
Ur rocker arms need adjusting, and since its restored it's probably not the valve guides unless whoever restored it didn't rebuild the engine. But definitely sounds like something in the valvetrain, I think I've heard diesel engines that wasn't that bad lol. I could be wrong I'm not very familiar with airhead boxers.

@@classicbikeenthusiast3595 gotcha, that's pretty wild but thinking about it I guess it does make sense because some older two-strokes sound like the have constant pinging or piston slap.

Valve covers are not original, edgy ones are from the 80's, and they are allright (unlike the ugly, plastic airfilterbox)
