I have tried to describe this motorcycle as best as possible. I am not an expert and statements made by me are based on my limited personal knowledge of the bike and should be considered my opinion. This bike is 50 years old and it's condition should be considered to be consistent with a vehicle of that age. It does not look showroom new. It has some rust spots, ings scrapes and scratches, ut still looks wonderful.
If you need further information, eel free to ask me a question.
