I rode this one tonight for my FIL who wanted to know if it would run. It wasn’t winterized and the gas was 2 years old but it ran ok and it was fun to ride around a residential neighbourhood. The bike shifted ok and the brakes worked ok. did notice a slight “buzzing” noise but i think it was the windshield. Might be rubbing on the frame/mount.
Riding position is very standard and it reminded me a bit of a Triumph I sat on last weekend. Apart from some TLC and a new front tire it seems fine to me. My FIL really likes it so it’ll be interesting to see if he gets it. If I was single it might be a fun project bike.
