God I love this bike. I'm going to clean it up, paint it and fix what's broken. All stock.

That looks great. Definitely worth restoring.

Sweet! I know a guy who has one of these, and he loves it. Good luck with it!

Cute kid, by the way.

Thanks guys. I have it completely stripped down to the frame. Going to just polish the wheels, polish the forks, then just new gaskets and seals everywhere. The sprockets are shot. I sandblasted the subframe, rearsets, and brake pedal.

Going to paint all that. I'll get the side covers and what not painted another time.

So dirty underneath. Bike has been neglected.

I'm not sure how this dude ran the bike like this but check out the sprocket.
