Unless there's some nasty surpasses lurking somewhere that's a super deal for 200! Well done! Plans for it?

Got it from a buddy who is not very mechanical, The shop told him it only had 60psi on a compression test, so as soon as I figure out what is causing that, it will be a new machine for my nephew to use when we all go riding

It appears the frame is bent slightly. Hard to tell by the last pic but it appears that there are score marks in the front fender. If there is that's an easy fix, still a score for 200!

How do I know or check to see if the frame is bent?

Not sure on the frame, but check the valve adjustment, it could be causing the low compression. I see these things all the time with tight valves because no one ever adjusted them. By the way, I see from your sig line you have an S90- I just sold mine about a year ago, it was a neat little bike! Still have a few extras if you need anything.

To check the fram take the gas tank off, grab a straight edge and lay it on the frame lengthwise, if there's gaps on the straight edge its bent. Then to go about straightening it you've gotta pull the motor 209555

I was actually just looking at parts on Ebay last night to get the S90 back up and going, it is a neat little bike. The one I have is a Benly 90 so its a 90cc bike with a touring package. HJas a chrome skid plate a luggage rack and front and rear turn signals
