Vehicle Detail
Purchased by me new in 1973, have original title. Fuel tank is in spray-can primer, paint on oil tank badly deteriorated. All original parts included in sale: seat, handlebar, pegs, mufflers, tool cover, original tools, spare parts, etc. Battery is several years old but has never had acid in it so may be in good usable condition. Tires are original and appear to have good tread.When I removed the bike from storage and started getting it ready for sale the engine had OK "feel" on the starter, seemed to crank properly with good compression. Put in fresh oil and gas, new breaker points and spark plugs, checked over electrical system. Now it fires occasionally but I have not been able to get it to start and run properly. I am at a disadvantage since my knees are painful and I am unable to give the starter a good proper "swat".
