Thanks, John, appreciate it!
Nice looking scooter. With any luck, maybe mine will turn out as well as
the "before" shots..

Cheers!

Hi Chuck,

John from Minnesota...or the land of sidecars as Sheldon would but it.

(1) Key. Is this a problem? ???? bmw use some of the same keys

(2) headers/mufflers MG Cyclehttp://www.mgcycle.com/parts.html

(3) Headlight. It had a windjammer on it, and he'd bent the ears over,
***** Ebay or Mark at MG Classics

(4) The taillight is rectangular, I *assume* this is not the right one..
*** Sounds like the newer one G5's 850's

(5) One head is missing the threads for the exhaust nut.

***** Mark at MG Classics does it ...I'm guessing $100 ea.

(6) The tach needle is pointing to 4K except the pointer is broken
off.??????

(7) I don't think the left hand controls are original, look Japanese to
me.... A lot of the old "pill boxes" were replaced!

Clutch cable is missing..... MG cycle

(8) It's a ahem lovely shade of red and creme, again I *assume* it
should be either black or white?

Buy a parts manual...$15.00?? Invaluable to identify what you have and
what you need and most inportant the part number to ask for!
I know Harpers have them.

Have fun!!!
Here's one I did last winter:
