I would guess that this bike would become a money pit if anybody purchased it to ride it, if you look at the fastenings on the handle bars they are corroded that could/would indicate that the bike has been kept somewhere damp?
If that is the case then the brake fluid will have absorbed a quantity of moisture, that moisture could then be in the brake system and clutch system, this could be a nightmare to sort out.
The inside of the frame could be corroding.
The air in the tires will have attracted moisture so the rims could be in a poor condition.
Any grease in bearings will have dried out.
Etc etc.........
The more i look and think about this bike the more i would steer clear of it, it could be a gem but i cant help but feel it will cost more and more money to put it on the road.
