    John the bike is seized, so that special 435 CR ported maxed out bore cylinder is possibly junk.
    The special number case is likely toast from rot, so then it only has the frame serial number left of the bike.
    A true collectors bike to have with only a handful around, a shame it was left to rot.

    I had the 86 510 out a bunch, what a slow ass bike they are. Has no top speed from some bogus primary drive gearing. 2.30 ratio or a 33/76 drive and basket, it wont spin the trans up to any great speed.
    15/48 sprockets even lol

    Steve,
    Unfortunately the 80's water cooled bike have a limited market $, for right now, wait
    another 10 years & i'd bet that will change. Almost anything can be restored, just
    whether, you've got the time & $. Even I hate to say it's probably too far gone.
