    "Whole Lotta Rosie" has a lot of spirit! But is currently not running.

    Restored from the ground up!

    New Barnett clutches
    New tires (well the rear has wear, but has 50% or more tread left)
    King and queen seat
    New coils
    Mac 4 into 2 megaphone exhaust
    Progressive lowering rear shocks. Lowered 1.5 inches. But I have a new set of Progressive shocks, at the original height.

    I have a few boxes of parts that will go with it.

    Carbs and ethanol, have been the issue, with this bike. And the tank...
    Carbs have been rebuilt so many times, but I can't get them to stop leaking. All new jets, needles, floats, etc.

    The tank, that it was using, had a bad tank seal job, on the inside and was causing so much debris to get into the carbs.
    I have the original tank, which needs to be painted and I have a proper tank sealing kit, for this tank. Once done and painted, this tank will be perfect!

    This bike will bring many miles of riding pleasure with a little TLC! And it will only take $1000 to get it done!

    Let me know if you are interested in taking her home!
