Nice !!! I have never seen one in person, just don't see many of those on the west coast.

Yeah looks like a good one. 1971 was still a good year! I have a NOS front tire for $50 used to be Jaxons and he painted the letters white. Have a Flaming stack guard in decent shape for $100, I have a seat for one but it has a small crack. Still gonna be $75 range. I may have a repop knob to get you buy. If you want to sell it like it sets what would you be asking?

First time I noticed them using those pedals on a Slingshot but look like the correct ones. I may have some of those too if needed.

Did you get this from Buckley Old Engine Show? If so I snapped a picture of it when I was shopping around.

Another great find.
