How about a restored '73?

Interesting.  My original parts book is showing the 51 for my bike.  I want to believe. Maybe I'll take a chance. Thanks

Thanks for the input.  Would appear that Walridge has the rims AND the spoke sets; 107.25 and 85.45 respectively. Any big dif from Buchanans?
I've laced and trued bicycle wheels before and assume it is similar in time consuming frustration, although much heavier.

I am in a similar situation to Kevin; parked my '72 Jack Pine after the last race in '75 and have it completely disassembled and ready to do a rebuild.  Does any one have any comments or suggestions on this process before I dive in?  I am curious about certain aspects such as, parts contacts, engine rebuild specialists, bad experiences, dos and don'ts, etc.
Also, is it considered better to restore to showroom original or leave it as I had modified it?
Thanks

Attempting to locate a 12T sprocket (OEM # 51-33-029-050). Found one on eBay, but with one digit changed (showing 54-33-029-050).  Does anyone know the difference, or IF the "54" will fit? Thanks for the help!

Just starting to rebuild my 175 JP. Have a lot of questions re; helpful hints, but one for now: any suggestions on re conditioning the chrome rims, spokes, nipples?
