I am not going to restore it to MFG specs instead I want to add my own twists to her.For example.The battery is held in place by twine so I am going to make a diamond plate box for it to sit in.
The man I bought it from said he replace the clutch shortly before he left it to sit.He said he never had time to work on it.
It's sitting on 1 front wheel.he gave me a whole new front end for it.
