This machine has enjoyed an intelligent and meticulous rebuild. It has its original oil lever and the 650 Tiger decals. Much of the cadmium-plated hardware is in good shape also. It came with professional clear coat over Harvest (Spring) gold livery. The front wheel rim is new and it has Buchanan stainless-steel spokes. The front hub is silver powder coated with clear powder coat and the front stanchions and seals have been replaced. It has Avon Roadrunners. It still has the original cloth wire harness although this is a bit frayed in some places. The bike also has the original zener diode and rectifier, and electronic ignition. The rev counter and speedometer do not work. This is the last year before the controversial and devastating switch to the oil bearing frame. It just got worse from there. Recently imported and prepared for sale, this machine is in good running order.
