    Actually as much as I hate to part with it, that foot peg could be yours. It was actually an old race foot peg, see how aero dynamic that bent semi-round rod is?

    Seriously though I have got foot pegs, a new seat, and a twist throttle all on the way. Can't wait to fire this thing up and take it for a spin.

    Got some free time and started wet sanding the fenders. Amazing they were black with lichen but actually look pretty good. Got some more sanding to do but this thing is going to look great once I get it back together. I was shocked all of plastic was all cracked and busted.

    Cool thread. I'm from the UP probably not far from you. I just picked up a good running tri-z from downstate of CraigsList for 350.00 a couple weeks ago. Good luck with your build.

    Nice score man. Where in the UP? I'm jealous you got the gold rims. That looks real original, even has the sprocket cover and exhaust shield.

    I heard the gold rims were standard and the silver's were more rare... is that true?

    They might be but mine came with grey steel wheels on the back. Looked at some pictures of the 1985 and its rims were gold too. Guess it shouldn't be too hard to find a set for mine.

    I'm in Gladstone, in the process right now of tearing down and going to go through and powdercoat everything. Have it ready ready for summer.

    Man now I am even more jealous, I swear I would kill for a garage about now. Going to have mine ready for spring too. But I'm gonna have to fight a lot more snow.
