I bought this bike from the nephew of the original owner. It is a numbers matching mag bike that has never been restored in any way. When I got it the mag gave me trouble so i put on a 47 pump and a distributor and it starts and runs great with zero smoke. I changed the grips and spirals to left shift and right throttle with parts that came with the bike but every thing is there to change it back. I put on an old harley police seat that matched the age of the bike so the buddy seat could be saved in its original condition. I put on a new exhaust from Greers and aged it to match the bike. The wheels are 18" and the tires are from the sixties which I aired up and went riding. The extra engine is a 48 that is apart but is complete from pump to 344 carb with sediment bowl. I miked the cylinders and they are stock bore and the valves sit high. I checked the plug threads in heads and the fins are fine. A friend said the bottom end could be run as is but i figured if you were to rebuild it go ahead and do the the rods and mains. I was going to rebuild it but have headed in a different direction. There are a lot of parts. there is 3 trans cases with which 2 are good including towers. There is a couple of generators with mounts and a ton of other stuff that go with the bike. I am selling the bike because i want to learn to fly and I am going to get a short field plane or build one . My name is Joe and I can be reached at 928 241 1490. Please don,t start texting me a bunch of questions because I hate typing.I would like to sell as a package deal and it is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end auction at any time. Thanks I almost forgot the bags are at a friends saddle shop getting fixed up but I don,t think he views them as a rush job.
