Vehicle Description

This bike is titled as a 1975, but it is either a very early "75" or a left-over "74". as it is a right foot shift, non-electric start,kicker only.It was my daily rider this summer, starts with 1 to 3 kicks and runs strong. It is a surviver,I am the second owner it shows some age. Head pipes have some pitting, as do both wheel rims, and lamp hangers. Fenders are in great shape, no cracks or dents. Tank is steel, it and side covers were repainted about 4 years ago, with PPG base / clear urethane.New pea-shooter mufflers, new seat cover, seat knobs, handle bars, chain guard, turn signals, tires, and battery, with-in past 4 years. Also has new front brake pads,and I have new shoes for the rear that are not installed yet. I have the original face plate for air cleaner, but not the screen or element, it has a K&N filter installed. As I write this, she is in the shop for tune-up, valve adjustment, and oil change, so she will be ready to go!!! Out of state move is forcing sale of several beloved toys, my loss your gain. Happy to answer any Questions, I will crate and deliver to trucking depot for $100.00 fee, all other shipping costs are buyers responsibility, happy bidding!!!
