It would be a labour of love, the alloy casings will have gone a bit cheese like with age, though it's nothing a Time Sert kit can't fix

When I first started riding,my little local bike shop had several of these,but all us youngsters preferred the Jap strokers. Nice looking now,but temperamental as fook in their day.
