- Unrestored only non original items are the battery and carb boots which were replaced with NOS. One boot came from Venezuela! Very difficult items to find. Yes, Even the tires are Original to bike! It has not been registered since early 70's kept in heated garage. I bought it from a 79 yr old gentleman who drove it away from dealer when it was new back in '67!
I own this bike now, I just put in a new clutch and rebuilt the carbs. Starts in like a quarter of a kick just a bump, it's so cool. My dad owned a candy blue one that I remember sitting on acting like I was riding it as he was buying it in either 1967 or 1968 brand new! What a memory! My dad sold it and passed away, so had to find another one like it in his memory. Only two were available in the world for sale , this one and one in Germany that was fully restored, mine is in excellent condition unrestored, even has the original Dunlop tires! How awesome is that!
This exact bike? Mine was original down to the tires. I still have the parts taken off of it. Who did you buy it from? What state? How long have you owned it?
Yes from Naples Florida, bought it and had it shipped almost exactly last September 2023. Same bike and inside the tank still looks brand spanking new!
Bought it off of eBay motors.
You must of been the 3rd owner who removed the seat cover to find the pristine original seat. And restored a F100 in memory of your father I'm I correct? This was part of the story that the seller told me. Small world hu? It's a really nice bike!
@@tonystark9118 quite the bike it is! A twin to it and very low miles was my first mode of transportation when I got my drivers license way back in 1973. This bike was a very lucky find. Yep, that is part of story. I still have the original dealer installed seat cover plus a bunch of small parts removed plus some NOS parts, A few manuals, books.
That thing is a time machine! Thanks for sharing
And, It runs n rides like it looks! Plan on registering it today. Bring back those memories when I bought my first YR1 way back early spring 1973
EcoBoost EngineSwap that’s awesome 😎... I’m jealous!
Very nice, I'm from the GJ.
Nice! Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment!
Incredible
Glad you like it! Great memories to bring back from early 1973 as my first mode of transportation
It boggles my mind how it was stored. Even if it was parked in the living room completely covered it would have collected dust and spider webs. It must have been in a large ziplock baggie
Amazing the guy kept it properly stored for all those years
Wow.
It's a Great Bike! 1st time Registered since the early 70's!
