Come and get it! 76 MR roller, spare frame, complete but, disassembled motor less piston and jug (main jet too lean). New cr bars, grips and levers. Ran for 45 minutes before "TING". I am not going to put anymore in it. 400.00 invested, best offer takes everything and be prepared to come and get it. Thanks for all of the insight and knowledge from the board. I have learned much and relived old times but enough is enough. |

I totally understand. After having to rebuild mine twice, I was riding at local track yesterday when throttle cable stuck while going over steep 15-foot drop. Scared the Crap out of me and I had to hit the kill switch while unexpectedly being shot airborne as I had tried to throttle down for leisurely run down the hill. I still can't believe the 108 main jet would do this!!! Mine is 0.40 over and the 108 is working great (knock on wood). Here is a link to a 0.60 over piston at a good price: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... AMEWA%3AIT |

Thanks Mitch, I supposedly won an auction for a pair of MT's but haven't heard from the seller as to how much for freight. I don't think he was happy with the final selling price and has chosen to ignore my e-mail. I cannot spend the money for anything alse at this time just in case the ass decides to sell them to me. I got a couple of swap meets to go to soon and hopefully I will find something. I could still part company with the ol' girl for the right price. Hell, everything I got is for sale! |

That's a die hard for you! Go from bailing out to bidding on 2 MTs in 3 days. Glad to hear it. These old bike are great therapy. |

That's the sprit. I've had mine for 26 years. I have file that contains every receipt for everything I've bought for in that time plus the owner before me. Must be 2 inches thick. I don't regret spending a dime of it. My 11 year old and I took a spin on it today. Really fun bike. |
