The final drive can be expensive to replace Nicholas. Before you leave, consider a second hand one from Motorworks. They're silly expensive here.

Thanks for the heads up Steve. I'll need to get a final drive for my other R80, just picked up a 1981 R80 TIC with spoke wheels, rebuilding the engine this weekend and then putting it back into the frame the following weekend so I can ship my bikes. I am hoping to setup a workshop when I return, vintage motorcycles have become a bit of an obsession! :-)

Bringing back:
1978 R100S
1987 R80 TIC
1981 R80 TIC
1976 Suzuki GT500
1981 Yamaha SR500
