Well, after very little cleaning and replacing a few parts.....here she is...
I would really like to thank Trev and Waza for finding this beauty for me . Roberto for the amazing fork and cracked seat tube repair, which was done in record time while I was doing some running around......beautiful work as always Brain P for totally hooking me up with the tyres which look like they were on this bike from day one.....thanks bro Waza! how well do the grips that you gave me match??
I found it hard not to do too much to this bike. I even started cleaning off some of the rust, only to feel it was better left. The brakes work, but are squishy, its just a jump on and ride sort of bike. To fine tune everything just doesn't seem right either......It feels like riding an old friend[ not sure my wife would approve! ] Hope you guys dig it...

Not to knock the efforts of the all-NOS guys ('cause those builds are cool too), but I am really digging the survivor movement. That bike is great.

I've always been a super clean resto guy, but having a tinker on this one has made want a survivor of my own.
I think the forks rake nicely.
