Best if you kickstart it off the stand. All the stand get bent or snapped off the frame otherwise.

@MrStubat I know you think you nailed it on the head, But its not about masculinity. Its because we dont want such a beautiful bike to get ruined.

Really nice job on your retro restore. I'm doing one too that was similar starting condition but a 71 T120R. I'm doing the same 'retrofication' with the earlier 69-70 style parts. The black paint and gaitors transform that front end to a very 60ish appearance.
I gotta ask- did you do anything to change the front ride height? Mine always looks a little front high but yours looks just right on the stand and on the ground.

--nothing special to lower the front end, stock 1971-72 fork tubes, Progressive replacement fork springs. I agree that it looked front high with the old front end on it but it might just be the gaiters adding visual "bulk" to the tubes. I really likes the way the black paint on the sliders and headlight ears brought it all together! Thanks for the positive comments, I hate that I had to sell it as it was a pleasure to ride and loved to be ridden in a very spirited manner!

gorgeous bike! how much do you think you would expect to pay for one of these that has been sitting for years?

@nialljamesbuckley
depends on a lot of factors, condition being the big one but a project bike can fetch anywhere between $150-1200, I paid $200 for this bike from a friend in 2001 and it was rough and incomplete
