Restorable T160 project that's 95+ complete. Please look at the pictures closely as they do good job of showing the condition. know motorcycles, so I'm going to give you the type of description that would want if were browsing eBay for vintage bike. Dry, but dirty and dusty storage for over 25 years. Showing only 4883 miles and would guess that's original. have the key and the speedometer and tachometer appear to be original. Engine turns over freely with compression. Gas tank is in great shape with little to no serious rust inside, only some light surface rust. Tank paint has some small faults, but there's no way would repaint it, way too nice for that. Most all the chrome parts will need polishing, replacement or rechrome depending on how far you want to go with it. Much of it however would be very presentable with some real cleaning and little elbow grease. Right side silencer looks as if someone sanded it down with sandpaper at some point which did it no favors. Header pipes look really good with no dents and little rust that wouldn't clean up. Seat has split and few scars so it would need replacement cover, but the foam and pan are great. Frame appears to be fine, don't see anything wrecked, cut or modified. Some surface rust on the right side, nothing bad enough to be pitted. Battery box is present and not rusted out. Carburetors are there, probably stuck, throttle and choke linkage appears OK and present, but the throttle has been disconnected at some point. also have box of loose parts that will go with the bike which includes the rear caliper cover, many nuts and bolts and some other misc parts.Noticeable missing items: Left battery side cover, right side oil and gas tank emblems, one of the coils, parts of the air filter assembly (no filter or back half of the box), rear taillight, chain, rear turn signals.Other obvious issues can see: wiring has been messed with in just couple of places, not completely butchered, but will need to be dealt with, front turn signals are busted, rear caliper is sticking so will remove it if it sells so it will roll easier for shipping, rear fender is loose fitting as it's been mocked up at some point, right reflector is missing from the oil cooler. Whew!Now for the important stuff. Will be sold on bill of sale, Georgia will not issue title on bike this old, so NO TITLE. However will include what Georgia calls T22 form where local law enforcement has ran nationwide search on the VIN and everything came back clean. This form is only good in the state of Georgia however, so have no idea what you would need to do in your specific state.Payment terms are $250 PayPal deposit with the balance via cash, money order (which will need to completely clear my bank before the bike will be released) or bank wire transfer. Sorry, but no exceptions on this.Shipping is your responsibility. will assist in meeting you or your shipper at my residence to load the bike, after that it's yours.Starting bid is the reserve. Shipping to continental US only.Thank you!
