#1 Post by LCanuck » Mon Aug 26, 2019 10:27 pm

Just sharing some pics of the progress of my LC. Its not quite a nut and bolt resto, but it will be someday..All body repaint, Tygas, new rings and all leaking seals done...gonna get her driving then revisit for the full monte...Its gorgeous so far IMHO.
Thanks to this forum for a lot of help so far.

Whew, looking good! :smt023

One of these days I'm gonna spring for a set of expansion chambers.

Not a fan of the weirdo seats some of the overseas guys put on their bikes though. We found a local gal who does seat recovering and she has a nice, rough flat black material that actually looks really good.

Just wait till you get it out for a ride. These little bikes are just a hoot to ride. :smt003

I like Giuliari seats on the LC 👍
Wasting time on 2T forums since the dawn of the internet. RD350LC, TDR250, plated 300XCW. No four strokes.
