What does this mean? Quote from his ad: "the engine has the too little dots on it so it's one of the good ones" :?:

Dots bring good luck? Two are better than one? I dont have a clue!

I think that has to do with a cam chain tensioner recall or something.
They would stamp a couple of dots on the engine number area when it was done.

At least, I recall something like that - 360's aren't my strong point, I haven't worked on many of them at all.......

Maybe Steve knows??

That SOUNDS about right...They (Honda) did a similar stamping thing when replacing early CX500 alternators to show it had been done....
My ONLY objection is: IF he does not have a title, he doesn't legally "own" the bike, so he cannot transfer "ownership" by selling it even with a signed and NOTORIZED "Bill of Sale"......
This is NOT to say it's a stolen bike, (and it's probably not, many "older" bikes have been sold/traded/bartered/abandoned or whatever without the titles getting legally transferred each time, and the paperwork is now hopelessly lost and untraceable and/or unobtainable...)
Just that I won't be the person buying it..... Without appropriate paperwork, I won't even take a "free" bike..... Steve

I emailed the guy as to what the two dots meant.

His reply was "the two dots mean the cam chain tensioner update was done on it."

So, there you go.

Good call Bill and Steve, The brain cells still humming guys!
