im having the frame sandblasted but to keep the cost down im going to spray it myself already done the side panals new decals on order the motor runs sweat has a nut so nothing to do there. it as been chopped at the rear common mod back in the day but its had a bar welded curved under the seat to give exra strenth. think the rear shocks have had it may buy new ones somtime. dont think its had a hard life just needs some TLC cheers bondy will update as i go.
