A beauty! I had a blue '72 R75/5 with a 'Toaster' tank (4.8 gal.). I like the 5.8 gal. tank on this one. Converted to electronic ignition? The Brembo is a nice touch, except the caliper is mounted in front of the fork. - Better handling if it's mounted Behind the fork, as some Japanese bikes learned in the '70's.
