Yep with a few mods
Different flywheels/rods/slipper pistons- Stroked and bored 280 thou/7+mm. Was 500cc now 750cc.
Ported barrels, Big valves, titanium keepers, Alloy retainers, Custon cam lobes that I had to mill the old lobes off the gears then mechine pin rivets to locate the new lobs, new roller rockers, big venturi in carb along with a few other mods, electronic ignition, 12v gene, good (modern)crankcase ventilation, Kevlar clutch plates
Wheels were 18x3" originally but changed to 16x5" chief rims with custom spokes as this was never an option
A bit of a learning experience for me , including- laced the wheels, milled the crank/rods, lathed the pistons, chopped and channeled the guards, straightened the frame, forks, handle bars (believe it or not they are chrome moly), every part of the engine/gearbox sorted with NOS parts or one I made for it
What i didn't do , paint, air brushed tank decals and bored the cylinders.
A few progress pics
