1971 Bridgestone GTR 350

This is an Unrestored Original Bridgestone GTR 350. This was a local purchase in Missoula. Montana where the motorcycle is now located. This winter I had my mechanic service and tune the bike. I cleaned and adjusted a few things on the bike and am now offering it for sale. The service work included cleaning and adjusting the carbs. adjusting points and timing. replaced fluids. new plugs. and installing a new battery. The bike is now easy starting and a very strong runner. I am impressed with its pick up and speed. I have driven it around on several occasions but have not taken it on the highway because of its old tires. Its a very fast bike. I cleaned the bike. touched up a few paint spots on the frame. installed a new and correct seat cover. and installed new and correct tank knee pads. I also cleaned the tank with detergent and installed new fuel line and inline fuel filters. I also installed an inline fuel shut off valve. The original petcock leaked slightly when in the off position. These items were all done to put the bike in a daily driver condition. I prefer to keep these nice old bikes in their original condition unless a total restoration in undertaken. In this way. a buyer knows that they are getting the bike unrestored and not partially restored by someone with unknown skills. So. this Bridgestone is the real thing. It runs and drives well. It can be used as a daily driver or yo can undertake your own restoration. It is very near complete ( no winkers). has some surface corrosion such as bolts. paint chip areas. and other locations as illustrated in the photos. The tires are worn and cracked. I don't think the handle bars are correct but they seem close. The guages are erratic and need repair. The odometer reads 8594 miles. The bike has paint chips. dings. and minor denting. Its not a show bike but is a very good survivor. Look the photos over closely and asked your questions prior to bidding. My ebay record is 100% and I work hard at keeping it that way. I want you to know what it is you are buying and happy with it when you receive it. Shipping across the country is as cheap as it has been in years. BikeHaul. com recently advertise a shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states for around $500. I used it to ship a bike across the country.
