This classic bike is a true survivor. My dealership received it on trade from the original owner a few years ago whereupon I put it upstairs in my little collection of bikes. I have since sold the store and am now selling off my collection.
The bike is clean and we had it running at the end of 2020. Our techs cleaned the carbs and I have video of it being ridden. We then drained the carbs and put it away again. Unfortunately I had a total knee replacement last March and am no longer able to kickstart any big engines so I have not run it this year.
The bike is all original as far as I know except for the handlebars. It had taller bars on it which we replaced with more traditional ones. The paint, exhaust, and even the tires are what came on the bike 53 years ago.
I have a signed, clean, Kansas title in the name of the original owner. The title was issued 8/11/1971. I thought it was amazing that the full year registration fee from back then was only $2.50! We would all love that to be the case today.
I can hold the bike for three weeks after the auction while you arrange pickup. I travel frequently to Denver and could take it there if that helps.
