current project. no, this wont turn into the 4-cyl, have another for that project.

so far, just an early S2 motor with stock pipes with modded baffles. rearsets, solid state reg/rectifier(off a CM400) and new tires. hammerheads, rebuilt forks (thanks tim) brakes, elec tach in the headlight bucket, woodcraft clipons. relocated oil tank under the tail, Some ducati-esque (circa 1966) reproduction levers for the brakes and clutch. new clutch, s3 swingarm, cables, wiring. aside from paint and some tweaking, this should be about done. Nice and simple buzz-bomb for around town.
