    Pre82 XJ550

    One complete and running bike, the rego is on hold and all the road gear is with it

    This has recently had the head off and the valve seats recut and clearances done, the cylinders were rebored at the same time and a second hand set of XJ600 pistons fitted, capacity is now 557cc (528cc stock) reassembled with all new gaskets

    Carbs were stripped and cleaned at the same time
    RD350LC 18 inch front wheel and has Avon AM22/AM23 tyres fitted
    Hagon rear shocks
    New Battery
    Braided steel brake lines
    Fork oil has just been changed
    Oil and filter has just been changed
    Clutch has been apart, steel plates were bead blasted and all fibres were measured and within spec as were the clutch springs
    New front and rear sprockets with it (but not fitted)

    Spares
    With the exception of a rear wheel and front forks/triple clamps there is enough to there build a second bike, I started grinding all the unnecessary brackets off the frame and swing arm with the intention of building a second bike a bit more in "race trim"

    One spare XJ550 engine complete
    One FZ600 bottom end (same as XJ600) stuffed bigend, clutch transmission etc might be ok
    One spare XJ550 with the head off

    There's a bunch of small bit and pieces in boxes which I didn't bothering taking pics of, levers, footpegs, blinkers,lights etc
