NO RESERVE!! For restoration or parts, non-running original condition, been sitting 25 plus years. Engine turn over with the spark plugs removed, butterflies on the carbs turn freely, tank is empty and clean inside with most of the red remaining. Would need much work to be rideable. Tachometer is stuck. Mileage I believe to be correct, I have an open box A Arizona title in the previous owners name. I’ve had this bike for over 20 years, and guess I’m not going to get to it, as other projects have always gotten ahead of it. Would love to see it restored, but thats up to the new owner. Fewer and fewer of these around. Ask questions if you have them before bidding. If you have zero feedback or less than 5 positive, contact me first before you bid or I will cancel it. BIKE DOES NOT RUN. Bring a truck or trailer. Tires hold air, at least for a while. I will cooperate with your shipper as I can, but you are responsible for payment and set up.On Dec-21-18 at 18:22:08 PST, seller added the following information: On Dec-21-18 at 18:28:34 PST, seller added the following information: On Dec-21-18 at 18:36:15 PST, seller added the following information: Everyone, I've had a few questions about getting this bike on the road. As stated in the description, this is for restoration or parts. Although it is likely/possible to get this bike running, you would need to go through the carbs, brakes, and fork seals, for this to be rideable. The tires are also 25 years old and would need to be replaced. The positive side is, there are LOTS of parts available for this bike, and I've had a few eBayer's contact me with parts that are available. I can give you their contact information should you purchase it. Thanks for the interest, and good luck bidding!
