the rebuild only took 6 months it was in 5 boxes when I got it. I have not touched the motor so it was a little easier. I painted the old girl, got all new electrics and rebuilt speedo and new tires new shock in front I am working on getting a windshield for winter riding, I have summer windscreen, bought new rack and had to run new cables. redid the brakes I am still working on little stuff I need the turn signal indicator that shows when there onand I don't have a neutral light as of yet but will soon. that being said,everything else works great. she starts up in a few kicks, so maybe a little tuning is needed. but runs like crazy. the bike is a 200cc with no engine mods I really don't plan on doing much except running her. I am 1 1/2 weeks into the first $4.75 for some oil and full tank of gas. she get's cole to 80 mpg and about 800 miles off a tank of oil. it's auto inject so no premixing. It will do 70 according to the speedo she only weighs about 325 or so good power to weight.
