The bike has a vintage matching 2-piece seat. There is a lot of custom work such as bars, gas tank sectioned, headlight mount, sissy bar, and peg mounts. It has a fresh top end rebuild including pistons, rings, tappets, honed jugs, bead blasted and painted. I installed a new front 23-tooth sprocket and a new rear 48-tooth sprocket, to go with the new chain. The bike has all new wiring throughout and a new battery. I installed a new tail light. I put on a new Keihin CV carb and air filter with a new throttle cable.
