Hi All,
I am the original owner of an 87 750 F1s. Purchased in New York at Ghost Motorcycles way back when. Back then I rode it for about a year, then decided to race it a couple of times at Bridgehampton, NY and at Loudon, NH.
I crashed at Loudon- the bike did pretty well but I did not. Needless to say my racing days were over. The bike was put away in my friends garage and did not reappear until 2004. In '04 I put some new rubber on it, changed the cam belts, oil, etc and put her back on the road without the fairing. Ran fairly well for a month or so but then I ended up moving again later that year and the bike went back into storage.
Finally retrieved my bike last week. Unfortunately my friends garage had a roof problem- got pretty wet in there. Bike was covered but there was/is some damage.
Needless to say I will be asking lots of dumb questions of all of you over the next year as I try to sort this one out.
Will try to post some pics later this week. Thanks for reading!
