thats definitely an 85 motor, non powervalve type, but don't let that put you off,have heard many folks say the b1 was a quick bike....K.

chrisxj:
that sucks no power valve im so so spoiled on a power valve after ridin the 500 zilla for 6 years but i think i heard it on hear that the head desighn and the flat top piston made good power. once i get it runnin will it have much of a power band to it? how will it act? never had a non power valve engine all my toys had power valves
