i'll have to check napa....advance/discount auto parts looked at me like i was an alien when i showed them the wire that came off the bike.

so the 180 degree crank is correct or no?

LM: i'll send you a pm after i figure out what kinda of shape my cylinder walls are in. they look decent, but i should take some measurements before i buy rings or anything.

Jamin,

You are in for a good time. You got some nice parts there and a great start on probably at least two good running bikes. I bought three CL77's over two years ago from the same family (in very similiar condition) and it has been a blast bringing them back from the dead. First and foremost-buy yourself a good manual. That will cut down on your use of curse words greatly. I tell you these little bikes are tuff as nails and draw a crowd wherever you go. Good luck and have a ball.

thanks guys, more photos on the way.

questions....

Are there 'modern' street tires available for 19" wheels? From my searching, it looks like classic is the only option.

Whats the best shop manual for rebuilding the motor?

Anybody looking for some CL parts, and looking to get rid of some 18" wheels?

thanks in advance!

PM sent, I need a front wheel but I want a 19".

I also need mirrors and some other stuff I cannot think of right now.

Thanks.

KP

I just re read your post - I actually do have some decent 18's off a cb77 - maybe we can do a swap?
