it's that exact bike, just chrome gas tank, red frame. Apparently it's rare, so we might redo it and sell it or keep it. One of the two. Only paid 100 dollars for it, so why not :dunno: shes been sitting since 76, and won't turn over, so we popped the plugs out and poured some marvel mystery oil in the cylinders, should free up by the time i get home

The only problem with old jap bikes is spares prices, a friend of mine works for HRC and collects old bikes, he says he does'nt get much discount, or much change in his pocket.
Nice bike btw, only see those at shows now.
