Looks like you either have or had and oil leak on both cylinders you might want to check that out
Otherwise it's a nice bike

 

[Dannie]

Thanks. I guess after 43 years the gaskets dried out but it doesn't use oil and runs well. As well the mileage is 24,000 not 23,000 - I guess I didn't pay attention as I still ride it every now and then

 

[Mikey]

You could try and clean it up a bit mike make the sale easier

 

[Dannie]

Good point. Bike is in storage for the winter so I will wait for warmer weather.

There was a (suspected) scammer hereabouts yesterday.
He's since been shown the door.
