It has new shocks...and we just reworked all the fuilds and wear items as we bought it just over a month ago from some people that had let it sit for years. The stock size tires on it were PERFECT, but date stamped from 1999! It puffs a little smoke from dried up valve stem seals from too much sitting, but runs strong. The radiator/heater hoses are old (could be original) and would be my only immediate concern for running it.

In fact, I'd switch to her being the driver and I'd ride then. Might be more fun for me that way. I could tell HER where to go for once! LOL

We'll see......
Any word on the trans? Get that thing back together so you can have some fun this weekend!
