I bought this last year end of april from the gentleman that built it. He lived in Fallon Nv. I drove it home from Reno airport about 500 miles. Have maybe put another 500 on cruising around town and foothills.
I Sold my dirt bikes the year before because of health issues. i had a number of 40s and a couple 45s back in the 70s and really loved them so i thought i'd get one and still be able to have some adventure in my life. My cancer has progressed didn't have the energy to dig out if i got stuck so I just fixed some stuff and enjoyed having it around. My cancer has spread all over . Just started chemo this week. I am listing it as it was listed when I bought it will add what i've done
