This thing runs great, and even looks decent with a set of brand-new Maier plastics. I don't like the front drum brakes, and I don't like the balloon rear tires. I was going to change out the rears for something smaller, but I can't change the sprockets to correct the drive ratio, so I guess it stays like it is.
A buddy of mine brought it here from Oklahoma, his sister had it and just neglected it out in a field for several years. Plastics were shot, fuel tank was filthy inside, petcock was missing, and front brake master was missing. But I checked the oil, threw some gas into the carb bowl, and she fired up on the third kick. He had money, I had the know-how, so we fixed it up.
He only rode it a few times, and was cleaning out his shed, so he gave it to me for a six-pack of beer.
