Hi,

I looked at the pictures on Ebay, that's why I remembered.
Sometimes I wish i lived in the US, there seems to be much more stuff around.

ok what i know so far...
cb72e 262226 is the engine number
it has cl77A carbs and looks like head-no tack drive and only one mount on top cover
oil pump is a later or cl unit -has mounting bos
oil is clean took the valve caps off has what looks like assembly lube/grease on top of keepers
cylinders have 247 cc h2 lower front.
kick starter shaft cut flush with case

now the weird part it only has one set of points mounted there hooked to two 12 volt automotive coils with a condenser also mounted on each.
more to come but i just drove 475 miles round trip.

Only one set of points suggests a 360 degree engine. Nice buy on that , although you obviously paid with the drive!
