This is a beautiful machine. Restored in 2009, it runs great and has great curb appeal. I ride it every week and it stays on a battery tender in an air conditioned garage when not in use. This is a matching numbers motorcycle. Starts on first kick after a few primers. The speedometer works, odometer does not. All lights work all gears are great(for a 1941 unsyncro tranny). This is a three speed. This is the real deal. All metal is original. I do not know how much chrome is original. I have all receipts from restoration. Will make a great addition to anyones garage. I believe this is a great investment as well.
