I have a 1968 Rupp TT500 that I am thinking about selling. It was a very clean original bike with no rust before I started restoring it. All of the chrome is original and replanted to perfect show quality. All of the bolts have been re-cad plated and are in perfect condition. The sprocket and front disk were turned smooth before being re-cad plated. The tires, brake calipers, tail light, wiring, clutch, rims, headlight glass, chains and muffler are NOS. the original 5hp engine was bored out to a 7hp, a new NOS piston, NOS crank and a billet rod were professionally balanced. It took a lot of Mallory metal to get it balanced just right. (The bike will go 55-60 all day long with no vibration, chance of breaking a rod and it will have a totally original outside appearance) the frame, forks and swing arm are still the original gold paint with no rust. Please PM me if you are interested.
