      Wonder what the chances are this one is yours? Unless something happened to it

      I was 18 years old the electric starter didn't work probably the battery. No kick start.so I'd run with it down the road jump on the seat and let out the clutch. And off I'd go in the rain and the snow.18 years old.HAPPY THANKSGIVING VIDEO STAR

    Why do you turn on the lights before you crank it?

      I turned the key on and the accessories came on.

    Where did you get tires for it I got the same bike and can’t find them to fit

      Hmm I ordered mine on Ebay, it did take a few days for the right sizes to show up for sale. I got a 100/90-18 for the front, and a 120/90-16 for the rear. They sell common front and rear combos together but I had to order this set up each tire separately. Both were cheap! $60 each.

    • @BonesMcoy

      The problem is the rear tire size is not very common, here are some I found on ebay if you don't mind mismatched brands

    What's that bottled cleaner you're using? Seems to work really well.

    Those bikes last forever I found the automatic version at a scooter dealer I am going to see if I can get financed for it. It's awesome has low miles too.

      There is a hondamatic one that keeps going up for sale in my area and I'm tempted to buy it each time. I'd love to find a low mileage example
