This 45 year old survivor bike has great compression, runs and rides well but is not ready for the next vintage MX race in Perris, CA or the 2019 Mint 400 in Las Vegas! It is in mostly original condition and has been stored inside for years with only some minor surface rust. Even the original seat still looks good despite a little gorilla tape repair. It is an excellent candidate for full restoration or just ride it as is.

I also have a full vintage body set, VDO speedometer and headlights available for the right price.

Sold with bill of sale

$3000 or best offer

Hi Ron,
The bike is located in Whittier, California, near the vintage MX races in Perris, Ca. March 17,2019. I am not sure how to post pics here, but I have an advertisement on Craigslist in Los Angeles, just search Penton for more details.

It's a nice bike worthy of restoration or preservation by the right person.

Thanks for the reply,
Greg
