PM with offers on what you want/need. If you don't know what a fair price is, check recently sold Ebay listings BEFORE messaging me.

I'll amend this posting as items sell.

The front wheel is NOT tubeless, the tubeless mags didn't show up until '79 or '80.

If you're in search of a 19" tubeless front mag, I have one I can sell you.

Let me know, thanks
 
Inside of the tank is very clean

Tubeless 19" front mag is in good shape but could use a cleaning

Ran a compression test this evening and the motor builds 150 psi in each cylinder after 6 kicks.

Would take very little to get it running, change the oil and set the timing/points/valves.
