today I spent a couple hours messing with it. cut down the pro tapers to an appropriate size, rerouted cables, lubed them, adjusted the clutch and throttle freeplay, replaced the missing fender bolts, and tightened all the loose ones. the clutch had no free play when I got it. it was slipping because it was like it was pulled part way. this thing rips! I am thoroughly amazed at how much fun it is to wind it up. you can really feel the power band hit. I will have to do the fork seals and adjust the ride height for him. previous owner cranked up the preload on the rear spring. looking forward to doing some work on this.
