I knew about this old girl rotting away in a freinds yard. so I asked if I could buy it. So last Saturday I went and fetched her. I suppose you guys have seen a zillion tear downs but heres another.

Only major mod intended for this bike is a Yamaha R1 front end. I hope to be able to get the Yammie brakes onto the R80 front wheel...mmmm Hope its not too tall an order. The R1 forks are widely spaced so I think I can get adaptors in there.
