Today just picked up a 73 flatrack replica it has not run for a while
but all is there , motor kicks over fine I cant find the engine number I would like to know where that is located. At this stage I am not sure if it is an unfinshed project or an old restoration. it has a plaque stating that it is police passed as a modified motorcycle in QLD Australia, the bike is now in Western Australia. I will post some pics soon maybee someone knows something about it
Thanks
Mark

I guess the first thing I should try to do is get it started before I pull it apart to see if the engine requires a rebuild. Wiring is in a bit of a state thoe
The frame is an original but it looks as if the head stock angle has been
modified so much that it is allmost nuetral trail it will probably spit me off

Welcome to the board. You say the neck was modified. Is it possible that it took a healthy hit in the front and pushed it back? Give us a shout.
