And so it begins.
This is the 1971 XS1B that was posted for sale two weeks ago.
Condition is not really good enough for this to warrant the time and money for a true restoration -- instead it will be a resurrection, but I do intend to make it nice.
I have about $400 including gas in it -- was 400 miles and an 8 hour round trip away.
My immediate need is for a seat. I can go a couple of ways with this -- I have a nice, complete, 1973 tin set that I could use, or I can use the existing tank and side covers. So, I can use any seat from 1970 to 1973, in any condition if anyone has one.
B T W the bike came with a rack that is probably pretty rare. It has some rust, but is otherwise pretty nice, if anyone is interested in it.
