OSSA 250 AE , BIKE LAST ON THE ROAD IN 1974. STILL HAS THE FLORIDA TAG & INSPECTION STICKER. SPEEDO / ODEMETER WORKS AND SHOWS 888 MILES, OF WHICH I REGISTERED EXACTLY 1 MILE OF.. GOT THE BIKE HOME & CHECKED THE THINGS NECESSARY FOR START-UP AND PROCEEDED TO HOOK UP MY AUX. GAS JUG AND IT FIRED ON THE SECOND KICK. TRUE TO FORM , THE IRZ CARB STUCK 1/2 THROTTLE. I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY INSTALLED KILL BUTTONS. I HAVE GOTTEN THE BIKE TO START, RUN , SHIFT & STOP,,,, BUT NO LUCK WITH THE HORN & LIGHTS. THE HEADLAMP IS FOR SURE NO GOOD ON HI-LO. REAR LAMP WORKS WHEN TESTED. HORN,,,, ??? THE WIRING LOOKS TO BE VERY COMPLETE & UN- MOLESTED, THE CHARGING SYSTEM DUMPS OUT 8.1 VOLT SO I GUESS IT'S THE RESISTOR / DIODE/PROBLEM. MOTOR & GEARBOX WORK GREAT, MAG THROWS A NICE SPARK,, IRZ CARB WOULD LIKELY NEED A GOING OVER, TIRES ARE PIRELLI AND IN GREAT SHAPE FOR WHAT ARE PROBABLY ORIGINAL. THE REAR LEAKS DOWN OVER A 24 HOUR PERIOD SO,,, VERY NICE BRIGHT WORK ALL THE WAY AROUND. GLASS HAS SOME SPIDER WEBBING & SCUFFS AND SCRAPES. THERE IS A TOOL ROLL IN THE TRAY. HELP WITH SHIPPING IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE. TITLE IN MY NAME & A KEY !!
