Picked up this little gem on Monday. Sometimes you're the first person to call on a titled $700 RD.
She's mostly there, but the kicker lever is gone along with a few badges/emblems. She's been in storage for seven years and possibly stored outside prior to that. The carbs and engine have a nice thin green film over them, but everything else looks pretty decent. There's a little surface rust on places, but better than most bike I end up grabbing.
The plan (at the moment) is a light café-inspired restoration. Because it's been sitting so long, an engine rebuild is planned. New seals and all that...
And here's where she's at after a few hours of work.
