its a pretty rare bike in original good shape. ive posted a lot of pictures. i have a clean utah title.
even grips are original from what i can see.the chrome is the weak point. there is some tiny rust dots on the exhaust.the chrome needs polished. polishing & a wax will keep it looking nice.the chrome on the chain guard is bubbling. there is a picture of it. its not something that will clean off. nothing is flaking off.the carbs need to besynchronized. i did not do that after rebuilding them because i could not find my flow meter. they are pretty close.The bike ran very strong & shifted through all gears. i didnt ride it super hard as the tires are pretty bad. but it was snappy and fun.battery was new last fall, ut i didnt take it out & keep it charged. it may need replaced. shoot me any questions you may have. i dont ride this bike & im selling it because it just sits. someone will be able to enjoy this bike.buyer is responsible for shipping. im willing to store outside under my carport while you arrange shipping. my shop is right on main street so it will be easy to load up for shipment.$500 deposit through paypal at the end of the auction is required.payment of the balance can pretty much be in any way you would like. any checks or otherinstrumentswill need to clear before i will let the bike ship. i can take payment of the balance in any way you would like to provide it. if you would like to use paypal for the balance there may be a fee. please contact me for details.
