steering wheel is odd, but if it steers and handles fine, the price is right.

I saw the same ad almost 2 yrs. ago.
I called the guy and the bike was sold. I did purchase a front wheel and both front calipers from him. They were near perfect. He and his wife were good people to deal with and to talk to.
I think this is long gone, the ad says "over two months old"
It definitely needed some front sheet metal and the twin beam VW torsion bar front end ( if I remember some other pics correctly) makes me wonder how it would handle. It was pretty low miles too.

I am curious about the brake and spindle setup as that is the hard part. Auto calipers don't work well with MC hand controls as there is not enough piston volume on regular hand brakes to handle them.
