I have owned this vehicle in Japan for more than 20 yearsand moved from Japan to USA. This vehicle was manufactured in 1984 and wasofficially imported by law as a vehicle over 25 years old in the UnitedStates. JapaneseVIN;99x-11950-AR Theodometer is now broken, so I don't know the actual mileage. I've done a lot of modification andmaintenance while I own it. The totalamount will be over$5,000. The suspension was changed from a rubber cone to aspring type with a height adjustment function for racing, and the shockabsorber was replaced with a type that can adjust the damping force. The frontbrake has been changed from a drum type brake to a desk brake. Brakingperformance has improved. The transmission is a straight cut gear developed forracing. The gear sound when running is slightly louder than the normal gear,but you can easily shift down even from high rpm. The engine displacement is 1275cc.Itis a very durable type A engine. (Steel head and block) The carburetor has beenchanged from the SU carburetor to the side draft type of Webber. The jet kitfor carburetor adjustment is also included.

There is some oil seep and oil leakage same as OldHarley. Occasionally, white smoke may appear for a few seconds when the engineis started for the first time when it is cold or when the engine has not beenstarted for a long time. Maybe it's time to replace the engine valve oilseal. However, I have never had anytroubles while driving. For repair and maintenance within 2 years, the partsreplaced are clutch replacement, clutch master cylinder and Slave cylinder,battery, electric fuel pump, cylinder head gasket, Racing exhaust manifold,muffler, etc.
