This is actually very rare to find these in good original paint. I had been looking for years for an OG painted one. Other than the turn signal switch it all looks complete and restorable with little work. Even the tv light looks great. That chainguard has seen heavy wear and tear.
I'm envious. Very nice find indeed.
So what's the serial number ?
Am Curious as to the year.
Does the tank and rear rack have the battery trays?
Please post a picture of the tank tray if it's there.

It's all about the Tanklights!!

How did I run out of room so fast?

A lot of TLC will get that chain guard right. No Cw to the right of the serial number?
 
I'm a bit confused on that rascal. it has what looks like a Cleveland Welding springer fork, but that fork tube shouldn't be that long, should it? I have a CWC springier fork but it fits a 6" fork tube. i would be interested in finding out what the length of that fork tube is without the caps. Interesting.
