Purchased the bike in Mustang, OK

I am away from home for over a month, staying in Norman, Oklahoma.  The last week has been very rainy and I have been spending time looking at Craigslist, which is how I found this bike.  Not exactly sure of the year, but they only imported them to America from 1966 to '68.  It has a 100cc two stroke, rotary valve oil injected engine.  I like the scrambler look of it and have wanted one for a while.  This one was listed as a parts bike to go along with a really nice running one.  I asked the owner, David, if he would sell the parts bike separately and he agreed.  He sent me a few pictures and it looked pretty clean so I drove out to have a look.

David has a very nice collection of motorcycles, and a really nice shop; I am jealous.  He is also a very nice guy and a self-described motorcycle-nut.  His wife also rides and was very helpful.


Sitting in its loft, in good company with other classic bikes
I asked David if the Kawasaki triple was for sale; its his son's bike
Some day I would like to own a barn with a loft AND a winch!
That was easy.  must have smudged my lens darn it.
still smudged.

David looked for a headlight but the one he found wouldn't fit.
Safely tucked-away in my storage unit, for now...
