ORIGINAL KEY AND ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL INCLUDED. ***LOOK AT TACHOMETER PICTURE I TOOK LAST NIGHT, PLEASE READ FULL AD, THERE SHOULD BE NO MIS-UNDERSTANDINGS. I ADDED FUEL TO THE ROCK HARD ORIGINAL FUEL LINES, ONE IS CRACKED AND LEAKS GAS. THEY WILL BE SPLICED TO THE PETCOCK. I REMOVED THE CARBURETOR DRAIN SCREWS TO DRAIN WHATEVER GAS WAS IN THE BOWLS. ONE DRAIN PLUG WAS GLUED CLOSED. SOMEONE BROKE THE SCREW AND JUST GLUED THE HOLE CLOSED. YOU SIMPLY NEED ONE FUEL BOWL. THE STARTER WORKS FINE, BUT CONTACTS ARE DIRTY. THERE IS A DELAY BEFORE SHE CRANKS OVER. DIRTY CONTACTS. THE POINTS HAD TO BE FILED AND POLISHED IN ORDER TO PRODUCE SPARK TO THE PLUGS. POINTS NEED REPLACEMENT, GOES WITHOUT SAYING.,..... THE TIRES ARE OLD MATCHING CONTINENTALS, FRONT HAS A FLAT SPOT. FRONT BRAKE NEEDS SERVICE. I WILL CLEAN OUT THE GAS TANK THE BEST I CAN WITH CLR. YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE THE TANK THE WAY IT IS, WITH FILTERS. THE ORIGINAL PETOCK HAS FILTERS TOO. THE PETCOCK IS ORIGINAL, NOT USRE HOW WELL ITLL WORK, OK. YOU WILL NEED TO GIVE THE BIKE A FULL SERVICE CHECK, WITH NEW TIRES, FROINT BRAKE SERVICE, CARBS CLEANED, POINTS REPLACED AND A FULL OIL CHANGE. I WANT A HAPPY AND INFORMED BUYER. IF YOU ARE A PERSON THAT JUST WONT BE HAPPY, PLEASE DO NOT BID. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! THESE BIKES ARE HARD FOR ME TO FIND IN SUCH BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL CONDITION. THESE BIKES ARE NOT AVAIL AT YOUR LOCAL STORE IN YOUR CHOICE OF COLORS. MAYBE 45 YEARS AGO THEY WERE, BUT NOT NOW. PLEASE, APPRECIATE WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT, MAYBE THE BIKE IS OLDER THAN YOU?? SOME BUYERS ONLY USE A PHONE TO LOOK AT PICS. PLEASE USE A COMPUTER AND SUPERSIZE THE PICS. IM GOING TO HAVE NO FUEL IN GAS TANK, UPON DELIVERY SOME TRANSPORTS NEED EMPTY TANKS. IM JUST GONNA LEAVE IT EMPTY, TKS. I ALSO DONT KNOW HOW GOOD THE ORIGINAL PETCOCK IS. IT FLOWS NO PROBLEM, BUT I DONT KNOW IF IT LL LEAK OR BE ABLE TO SHUT FUEL OFF. EMAIL ME WITH QUESTIONS. I CAN EMAIL YOU MORE PICS TOO. I HOPE EVERYOME HAD A GREAT MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND.
