1975 Sixday pictures

[rob w]

This is the 1975 Sixday I've been building for a friend for the past year or 3. Just wanted to show a couple pictures I took of it, before it shipped out.

Thanks Jeff. Yeah the '74 and this, there were'nt many differences. This (Dec '74) is the last run of Sixday models ever made. I love it. I have one more frame like this.

Tim,

Kip and i had this conversation at Mid-Ohio about these 75 125's and we could only come up with about 10 to 12 known bikes in current times counting Rob's 2 bikes, there couldn't have been many built,

Rob and i can find frame #'s from 11/74 to 1/75 i believe from the last time we talked about them as well,

if anyone can shed a little more light here on the build total please do :-)))

i have one and mine is 11/74 build date,

regards,

Thank you Kent, and Sean.
Mike, I don't remember any 501xxxx's, I thought they were either 411's or 412's.
Brian, You'll be at the top of the list if I ever decide to. I'm feeling it's 'a keeper '. Maybe a ' Hiro powered/ 200mm forks - keeper '.
Randy, Your's is looking great! Karl S has a beautiful one also.

Robert,

i believe you are correct, 4/11 and 4/12's
it would be cool if we got photos of the few that are still around and a list of their owners,
i believe Uncle Ronnie has one :-))
and Mr.Penton has one that never had gas in it,

Mike Winter, when you have time take a pic of mine and post it here for me, this will be a before photo in it's resto process :-))

OK, who else has one ??

This could go in the wanted/for sale forum, but it corresponds with this topic also.

So after years of developing a intake manifold for the "D" cylinders, I made some up that function very well with the stock 28mm Bing.
I understand there's a pretty small market for a part such as this, I filled the need of the 3 or 4 I needed, and I have 7 extra made which are available, and for sale.
These will not be reproduced again, because the cost to produce outweighs what the market will bear. I would just like to recoup some of my costs back, so I am selling them for $50 + $5 shipping (U.S.)





Includes 1)A - 2)B's - * NO C's - 1)D & 1)E

* After I found and purchased the 50mm/ 2" Norma thin hose clamps, I discovered that the worm gear is made of a softer material that when slightly over-tightened, strips the threads. So, you will have to come up with your own clamps.
Thanks very much, Bob
