You golden Larry. I had not heard from you and it's getting pretty close to crunch time for me. Thanks for coming through.

Larry, if you want a MC5 400, I'll sell you mine for cheap.

The heck with all race this stuff, ride what makes you happy. I would be more than thrilled to ride this bike.

Britt,
I've called for a return on mine but haven't heard from them with an RGA.  Would gladly make an exchange if you want to swap.  You coming to the Feb. meeting?

So many projects, so little time!

I'm out in Oregon but I'd be up for an exchange. I'll zip you off an email.

I have the opposite issue, I have a 100/100-18 and need a 110 MC5.

Make you a smoking deal on my 76 MC5 400 project if you really want one.

very nice bike, but it makes me sad too, I am wanting to sell my 76 mc 5 very soon and I was going to ask at least that much and it is not nearly that nice looking although it is a very strong bike and runs great.. but it is stock and it is still on the stock bore..

Thom Green,Still crazy after all these years!

They all look like the chain beats on them in the same spot. Were they considered a wear and replace item like a rubbing block?

This bike actually has what appears to be an aftermarket chain tensioner that bolts on back towards the brake link. The roller is huge too.

It's a 76 so do you think I could just use a spacer and be alright?

I found one locally today but it looks like I still need a couple of other parts. It looks like a broken chain at some point broke the ears off the rear engine mount spacer and boogered up the 12mm bolt. So the parts search continues...

Larry, next time your tuning your Penton, open the garage door.

I still need to find a shaft and order a gasket set from Al.
