Just got home from picking this up. I believe the bike to be 100% original and unmolested. Its got patina, and unfortunately the sissy bar did not survive, but this paint scheme is one I haven't seen pop up yet. Everything is functioning even the cables, motor does turn over with compression but it feels like it needs to be torn down. I even got the cool captian america helmet thats next to it and a sissy bar off a full size bike I can maybe make use of in the deal:thumbsup:
Motor is interesting to me, its an early style shroud motor but they did not use an aluminum tag on it. They stamped to top of the shroud like the later fatter shrouds. Might not be odd, I thought they went to different shroud around '74 though??? spark plug is still the painted original even.
