These are my go to. Use them for pretty much everything in the shop. Cleaning, painting, snorkeling.

Great answer.adventurco said:Well, are you planning on a full on resto/rebuild? Or getting her roadworthy and riding her before you deal with cosmetics?
I would look at new tires, your brakes will most surely need an overhaul. Take a look at my 360 build, the last few pages go pretty in depth with the front caliper which I believe is the same on your bike. New pads, shoes are the way to go since you don't know how old they are.
You'll probably want to upgrade the Regulator/rectifier from stock to avoid charging system issues. Among other things.
