That was an awesome video! I didn't realize how high they wind up. I can't wait until mine is flying down the road.

So I got it tonight! I don't know the year, but let's go with 1969 CA160! The guy had the original owners manual and a Clymer's manual too. He had a bunch of spare parts, plugs, and a coil All for $650.

Anyhow, I have a 15 month old son, so time this weekend to tinker will be limited-not to mention it's 100 degrees every day.

My question to everyone: how should I go about seeing if it will start? I need to buy a battery (spare was/is dead/old), but will it die if I don't have this project wrapped up in six months? I need to clean out the tank and clean out the carbs then throw some oil in the SP holes, but then what?

I'm new to this whole "bringing it back from the dead" scene. How awesome though. My camera is broken, but I'll upload pictures soon.

Thoughts?
