My dad had gotten this bike and planned to rebuild it. He tore it completely apart and had it in various boxes in the garage. I asked if I could rebuild and have it to ride to work, and my dad agreed since he wants the parts off his shelves to make way for his Ford Falcon's parts. I spent the summer looking at pictures and reading the manual to piece everything together. Once everything was said and done, I went to start the engine for the first time. On the first kick, the engine turns right over and fires up without any issues. It's an amazing bike.

Weight reduction. I took off anything I didn't need, like the front fender, side plates, heavy airbox, start motor, and other small bits because every little bit helps.
