One thing I forgot to post earlier was that there appears to be no bracket on the frame for an ignition switch. Can't tell if the bracket was removed by someone, or if it was never there. Anyone have a good close-up pics of the ignition switch bracket? From some bikes I've seen, the bracket looks ...

The number that's stamped on the steering head is what I'm assuming is the frame number. It appears to be 850232. I read this from the shed where the bike is back in suspended animation. I didn't remove the headlight like I should have to get a more direct look at the numbers.

Craig:

Thanks for helping unraveling the mystery. I'm going to bet that panel shown on the drawing where the idiot lights were is made of unobtanium.

Actually, I'm thinking more and more that restoring the bike back to 100% originality won't really be worth the investment. If it were a green ...

I'm looking for a seat to fit my 75 860. I have the stock ducktail or ducka** type of seat. I'm looking for the regular seat that doesn't kick up in the back. I know folks may flame me for changing around the bike and getting rid of the ducktail, but I really think they look better without that ...

Thanks for the info Steve. But on the bikes that used the instruments and key switch mount as shown on my bike, where did the indicator lights go? Like for oil pressure, charging, high/low beam and turn signals? I've got the guages that go into the mounts, and there doesn't seem to be a place for ...

I'm slowly resurrecting my 75 860, which is probably as much of a mix of bikes than anything else. Well, I know the frame is stamped with 1/75 on the steering head.

I've hopefully (if my posting pics works) posted a pic of the bike overall, and another one of what appears to be an area between the ...

Ok, I'm over here working in the Middle East, and on downtime I'm trying to learn as much as I can to maybe bring the 75 860 that's been in suspended animation in my shed for over 15 years out into the light. I bought this thing from a guy in the Northeast years ago as a bit of an unfinished project ...

Forgot to mention that I'm in Austin, Texas and I bought the bike from a guy in New England.

I'm missing the little threaded adjuster and lock wheel from the mount for the clutch lever on the handlebars. Can't take the play out of the clutch cable right now. Are there any other late model parts that might cross over and could be used?

Anyone who's had a bike get dropped over and broke that ...

I finally decided the 75 860 I bought 10 years ago has spent too long in the storage shed. I bought it as an unfinished project, mainly needing the wiring finished.

I'm just starting to get the few things together to get it running. My main challenge is connecting up the wiring harness and the ...
