So you are missing a throttle cable entirely? I could see that as causing an issue - but not completely. The throttle closes due to the return...
Yeah I'm not a huge guy by any means, so the size is fine for me. I am a little too long in the legs to be honest for it. It is definitely built...

I love my 86 and have put a lot of miles on it. It's not as problematic as people like you to think. Just keep the valves adjusted, flush the...
Oh don't get me wrong I know. The bike doesn't get beat on. My point is if he wants power just make sure the bike is running 100% and enjoy the...

Crazy old bump.
Could be improper fuel mixture settings - just basic carb issues. Does it back fire while accelerating? Or when the throttle is closed and your...
