| | Well I mainly bought it for the front end. I have a 74 lapd with an 86
Cali2 engine. The bike has the twin leading shoe brake, which does not
work well with the square barrel engine. The bike originally had a 4
leading shoe front end but the previous owner wiped it out in a wreck.
So anyway I plan on doing a swap with the front ends and sale it. The
bike is in good shape, except for the wiring. It has a box with toggle
switchs on the handle bars that control the headlight and a huge spot
light mounted on the crash bar. It also came with a bunch of new parts,
including a new voltage regulator that harpers sold the owner to replace
the Marelli one. It is a huge Lucas unit but it did not come with any
wiring diagrams on how to hook it up. The guy I got it from still had a
copy of the original title where he paid 1700 bucks for it in 74.
