Had a wild weekend just now. Went to a sale with a good friend to look for a few missing pieces to my quietline collection, ended up bringing these home!
I spent some time on the 1200 and it purrs like a kitten after some fresh fuel and a carb rebuild. It needs some odds and ends and the steering column repaired but otherwise is ready to use. The 1000 runs great but the clutch is trashed, it will need a full rebuild with driver and friction disc at a minimum. In time I’d like to replace the rear fender and the front nose cone as it’s cracked in a few spots.
Both machines have decent ISO mounts, I was really expecting them to be gone.
Sad part of the day was after bidding we left to buy a sandwich at the concession truck, while away some jerk grabbed the original IH key and fob out of the 1200! Still can’t get over that.
