Unless ya want turn signals I recommend ya check with your state as this bike was issued before them. ..........lm

thats true, i just know ive looked in some parts of bmv and it says it requires a motorcycle to have turnsignals, but i didnt check for bikes made back in the day.

thanks

Cylinders were never black, nor the black highlighting on the points cover.

What is the chrome band on the back side of the front fender? I can't figure it out and it's not original.

Nice mufflers though, that's a big plus.

Chain guards weren't chrome either.

Super nice bike, Tango....you can expect to spend a lot of your "riding" time thanking people everywhere you stop for their compliments!

Is that a ground strap connected to the swingarm pivot?

yeah i dont plan on making it 100% origional. i just want it to look as good as i can with what i got. So ill be getting rid of the dumb sticker he put on the front fender and I already took off the Chrome bead from the seat and will either fix it to the bottom of the seat or get another seat thats correct.

As far as the Ground on the pivot bolt , Brewsky, yes i believe that is, was like that when i bought it. does it go somewhere else?

I went to bike night at the motorcycle parts shot in town and it was def a hit. Thanks for the comments, complements and suggestions guys!!

The ground strap is supposed to be completely behind the left cover. A pic in this thread:

thank you. the guy i bought it from must of had a reason for the ground. The bolt it should go on is not coming off. I may keep it where it is till i figure out whats happening.

The starter button is broke where one of the screws goes, ill prob need a good used one.
