DESCRIPTION
Great beginner bike. Great beach cruiser or local commuter or rv park or pit bike. Top cruising speed is 50-55 for about 185 lb person. Not freeway legal as it is only 125cc. Could also easily be converted into a cafe racer ...if you want to ruin it. ;).
The bike is 41 years old, nd to my knowledge all the parts are stock except the side panels. Has new battery. Lights and blinkers work, as tank clean, ngine strong.
KNOWN ISSUES
+ The floater in the carb is stuck so gas drips very slowly from the carb straw. Pretty easy fix for mechanically inclined or DIYer w/youtube
+ The speedometer works but the rpms do not, hey sell replacements for everything on this bike on ebay. I never fixed this because you can listen to motorcycle for shifting purposes.
+ The plastic covers on front shocks are ripped from age. Cosmetic, nd not noticable unless you know they were originally there. (see video)
+ These models run a 6 volt battery, ot the standard 12 volt. It is possible to convert them to 12 volt for more power for lights, tc. As you see, he bike fires right up. I took it for a ride as seen in the video and had no issues (the video cut out b/c i had my phone taped to the handle bars and ran out of storage for video on the phone - but you can see me shifting through all gears w/o issues, topping and going, tc. However, here seems to be a loss of battery power the longer you ride the bike. Pretty sure a new wiring harness will fix this. I bought one, just haven't had it installed, It will come with the purchase of the bike.
Again, atch the video, he bike works and runs, ut i wanted to be as transparent as possible about the bike. It is over 40 years old. A tune up is probably in order and the above issues will be fixed.
Extras:
Trickle charger
New wiring harness
New Carb
HISTORY OF THE BIKE:
1. Man bought it brand new in 1975. Road it less than 500 miles.
2. His son inherited and road it about 500 more miles.
3. His son inherited and road it about 1200 miles. Sold it because he is about 6'3" and rides a ninja, o this isn't really his kind of ride. He needed money so i bought it from him.
4. I bought it paid the back CA fees and got it back on the road - and have ridden it about 100 miles. This is my first bike and I think it looks sweet and is an awesome get around the neighborhood bike, t gets the looks and the thumbs up, but I have kids and decided to go with a Hondamatic - seems a little bit safer and has the capability to go much faster. When i bought the bike, he owner said he had just jetted the carbs, This was only a couple months ago and I have been riding it pretty regularly.
Questions? Let me know.
