I've owned this bike for about 5 years. Bought it as a basket case. Valve cover area has an oil leak that I've tried to fix but been unable to. It is quite rideable, but drips oil onto the exhaust header. When initially putting it together I had a valve/ring job done, so it makes good power. It is hard starting. The homemade choke cable bracket @ the carb functions, but is troublesome, in that opening the choke all the way and closing it all the way is difficult. Front tire, brakes, chain and battery are good. Back tire has about 10% left. Fork seals were fine as of last year. Note cracked rear fender and mirror. I believe nearly all lights work. Has only one side cover. What you see is what you get. Licensed until Feb 2013 in Minnesota. Sold as is, no warranty, no returns. Must be picked up, will not ship. All pickup/transportation costs are the buyers responsibility. Do not bid if you do not have a good experience rating with ebay, I will remove you from the bidders list. Immediate deposit of $200 via paypal required. The good news: No Reserve, Highest bidder gets it! 320 532 4194, Phil. It could sell locally.On Mar-13-12 at 09:59:12 PDT, seller added the following information: 3/13/12. Just started it for the first time in at least a year. Started on the second kick, but the carb floats are stuck (overflowing gas), and it smoked alot. Smoke cleared after several minutes.
