I picked up this bike about a year ago as a side project for cheap. Sat for 15 years and was rough but I like bringing things back to life and have always wanted a 3 wheeler so I decided to give it a go.
The plastics were badly pitted and the motor had low compression. Could not save the carb and had no spark. After a top end and rewiring the bike to use a DC cdi it is now running. It's running a pz30 carb because I had one on hand. The handlebar switch was bad, replaced it with one I had from something in the past. 2 new tires as the ones it had were the wrong size. Fork seals and other routine maintenance finished now and there are a few little things to do but otherwise it's as complete as it's going to be.

I plan to put a lot of hours on this next year, perhaps get into a tri-z if the right one shows up.
