well i didnt get the bike hom but i ook some pics...this pic shows the front stand i cant wait to try....the spokes seem all in good shape ,rotorslook great too ..the missing turn signal lense is in te trunk

this pic shows the seat so far ive seen no rips or anything ...it has swade type seat material soed in perfectly it seems....the exhast seems in great shape too i dont have much serious look at it but everywhere i did look was solid..the back rest has some hardware missing but looks easy to fabricate

you can see the general dust and stuff thats collected over the years most of light colored stuff is dust the engine guards are different than any other ive had.........

this pic is just guagesand stuff seems all there theguages look in fine shape and no sun damaged

this is just pic of trunk with the al the all the parts in it....it is missing the bag cover on the one side

Looks like it'll clean up pretty nice. :mrgreen:

 

[dan filipi]

Yes it does.

Is that a trunk in a trunk or am I seeing double there?

 

[mcgovern61]

Great find Joe!!!! Looks like it will clean up real nice! My buddy has a '76 with the same engine guards. It looks like it was already repainted once (Can't see any decals). Seat looks real comfy! (especially if you take another Florida trip!)

 

[joedrum]

thats the false tank box dan ...and yes its been painted before and fille with decal he gave me deals to put on he had made yrs ago

 

[dan filipi]

Oh I see it now, sheesh.
With the left bag cover off it looked to me like a trunk within a trunk.
I'm tired, just shoot me.

 

[cmonSTART]

Great find! It looks like it sat in a barn for quite a while.
