Now the k@k part. Bike has no papers, this is the full off-road version with trip meter. I bought it a few months ago after finding her lying under a cloth in back of a garage where she had been standing for several years. Bought her and spent 10k getting her back to life. Plan was to get her on the road and bought a Tusk Dual Sport kit to fit which I have not yet done. I plan to start the process to get her on the road and registered in the new year and if she is not sold then will probably keep her or sell her for more. I know there will be the usual backwards and forwards banter about no papers being end of the world and means the seller should pay the buyer etc....but its a manageable process to get papers and takes a few weeks. So if you want to vent about no paper bikes, move along please , she is classic and starts and runs like day she was made. If she sells then new owner can love her, if she doesn't, I will continue to enjoy her for years to come
