FS - misc. '76 GT550 parts

Post by Frank »

I converted one of these to a drag racer and have since back-halved it. I have two swingarms (one with a set of ~6" extensions), rear wheel with 4" vintage slick and 65-tooth sprocket, front wheel/tire, chainguard and a few other bits. If anyone might be interested these parts are available cheap, cheap, cheap! I don't want to throw them out. Located Mid-coast Maine and I'm willing to ship. I can load some pics if anyone asks.

Yes, I know. I'll get my coat and go.............. 8)
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

I went out to take this picture then realized I had cut the back off when I first started racing. Sorry 'bout that. If you're still interested you can have it (pay shipping).

Sorry not interested. (Need a chainguard for the 72 GT550 cafe project.)

FYI…
I did have one important failure with RedZone.
Had a crisis on the way to the Cafe Racer reader ride-in bike show last year.
A while ago I noticed that you mentioned helping Chris with the turn signals.
Figures — the important failure was that a turn signal bulb burned out.

Just kidding of course.
Chris did an impressive job with RedZone & my heart goes out to his family.

Oops. Got all confused with my last post, which probably didn’t make any sense to you. Another forum member had helped Chis with the turn signals.
