    I’ve owned the bike since July but won’t be able to keep it due to relocating out of state soon.
    The motorcycle was completely rebuilt, many new parts, and repainted back in 2017 by previous owner before he passed away. His wife told me that there’s a couple hundred miles on the rebuild. I have personally ridden it and have added to those miles.
    Overall, this is a very nice, collectable motorcycle. It starts, rides, and shifts through the gears good. There are a few minor things I think could be done to make it perfect, such as the carbs being slightly adjusted.
    There are some videos on YouTube that I posted of a walk around, idling, and riding it.

    The motorcycle is used and will be sold as is, where is with no warranty. It can be picked up locally or can be shipped at buyer's expense. I researched a shipping company that would charge 0.60 per mile to ship within the USA.
