FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS ...that’s beautiful - what a great combination of components - like the brake and forks and the seats look good too...looks like you have uprated the electrics...very nice -
I reckon that would find a good few buyers if it went into production today..!..

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS With the exception of the seats I put it together like this in 1976, and have been riding it ever since. The alternator/magneto combination is great and the brakes good for today. I always felt AMC’s dualseat let the bikes down, hence the change there.
