@Mitchell LaForest I changed your topic title from 1980 to 1986. Try these manuals

btw, thanks to quad crazy for making this forum easy to use! my bike's derailleur hanger broke and I was trying to ask for help because I couldnt find the part online.... first the forum wouldnt let me post a pic till I had 10 posts (whats the purpose of that????) then it wouldnt let me post more than 5 posts (and I was being as helpful as I could) in 24 hours... it's like they are trying to make it as hard as possible to use their forum... THANK YOU to quad crazy for an easy-to-use forum!!

thats a clean looking bike!

yea definitely bikes. just 4=wheel bikes 🚳

I do realize there will be missing parts. The guy who started this project sold the project to a friend of mine who sold it to me. It sat in his garage for a couple years. Who knows what happened to small parts? But the big stuff is there and I can order anything I need as I get through this thing. I'll start this weekend by laying out all the parts in the order that I think it should be assembled and compare parts piles to the factory parts manual. I'll make my first order based on that and go from there. I split the bottom engine case and replaced the main gasket to take care of an oil leak. That was a bit more than I anticipated as the transmission had to come apart too. But that is all back together, torqued to spec and no more oil leak (Have not put oil back in to test but have no reason to think it will leak). So now the bottom end is mounted on the frame. I have new piston and new rings ready to go. Top end will need a ridge ream and cylinder hone before putting that all back together. I may start with that this weekend after I verify all the missing parts. As for selling it...I'm hoping to get my 16 year old son to take an interest in this thing. If he does, it will be his bike (depending on how much help he gives me). If he shows no interest, I may put it on the market when it's complete. Depends on if it turns out to be faster or slower than my 2003.
