What size are you looking for? How about a 400?

I am looking for a 1977 175 but a 400 would do. Please email me your info to [email protected] .

Thanks,

Teddy,  I also have a 400 MC5.  Mine is a 1978.  It is currently completely torn down to freshen everything up.  Let me know if you are interested.  I can put it back together without doing any further restoration if you are interested.  The bike is complete and runs strong.

Hi Thomas,  As you know, I *thought* about putting my 400 on the street.  I heard from a LOT of people both on this sight and privately about the pro's and con's.  I ultimately decided against it for a couple of reasons.  The main one being that I really appreciate good brakes, and although the drums on my bike are fine off-road, I would not trust them on the highway. A good set of discs are hard to beat!  I may pass you on my Harley though . . . :)

Hi guys,

Thanks for all your input. I believe I now have collected almost all the parts I need to build this bike. Now if I can just find the time!!!!

Danny,
What part of the country might you reside and what price range do you feel you need to be in for your bike?    Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob,  I am in the NW corner of South Carolina.  If all I do it put the bike back together, I will take $1500.  The bike is complete and had fresh everything about 10 years ago.  It has only been ridden a couple of times since then.  It has been stored in my basement since.  The paint is good, but not perfect, but mechanically very good.  I have tons of digital pictures I can send.  If you are interested, give me your email address.
