    I'm trying to sell off everything I removed during my "conversion." All prices are shipped/obo. If youre local, we'll negotiate. Same if you want multiple items. Offers will be considered, but i've got bills to pay. I accept paypal for payment, cash if local. No trades. All parts original...

    Awkwardly, for now. I mention in the OP a couple times that its the last hurdle left to clear. Maybe spend more time reading and a little less trying to be clever :P? You guys think it would be easier/cheaper to rig up a cable actuated system or try and retain the stock pull-rod style?

    Nice, definitely love my little 175. They scoot plenty well when theyre running properly.

    Whats up homies, been browsing on here for a couple years meow and subsequently caught the bug pretty bad. About 6 months ago I sold my '74 BMW 2002(still regret that) and went on the hunt for a project bike. After about 6 weeks of searching, a female ridden and very well maintained(husband)...
