Jimkraft, pferreira & mjrfd99- I love your guys bikes. I wish I would have had the mind to hold onto 1 of my older bikes. I think it's amazing to be able to pass a bike onto a son or have the same bike and still be riding it 35 years later.

Carlgrover- the guys did do some engine work. They put in hot cams and basically tore the engine down and put in new seals, gaskets, etc. also put the Mikuni on there. The engine is what impressed me- anything else I can change but that engine is clean and with them tearing it down and putting new seals and gaskets and tightening everything up I felt like I had something solid.

French- yes it is a little cramped but not to bad. I'm not big- only 5'11, so it's not to bad. The day I picked it up, I rode it home which took about 2 hours and I was fine. I might look into some forwards or at least some highway pegs down the road.
