    I can't wait for sun, sounds like a good one. I have tecates and worked on many others. The rear shock will prob need rebuilt but even with rebuild will soon blow again, I'd look for aftermarket unit. Check shift lever thats its nice and tight on the shaft, alot of them are loose and it strips out the shaft splines. Fuel valve is a cheap design, get a banshee one. Water pump seal will prob need replaced soon if its the original one. Get a Ricky flywheel before the oem one comes apart and tears up the stator and case.

    WOW, real nice unit there Fro......

    I bet something stupid fell on the dam headlight, certainly looks like a low hour machine.

    Congrats, you deserve it!!

    Very nice, gotta love when a guy gets something he really wants, and didn't just buy it make a quick couple hundred bucks. Enjoy that one, there aren't too many of those things floating around that are running or basket cases...
