Bought the bike 5 years ago and gradually rebuilt it. It's in the combat ser no. Range and has the front disc brake indicating combat however the head is a '70 head. Cursory cam lift measurement shows greater lift than std. I think it's a combat. Bike had 20000 m when I got it. He starts 1st or 2nd kick if you do your part.

Power arc provides two switchable advance curves w/ switches in Hl shell. Bike is clean but not concourse. He has never failed me. Only breakdown was my fault due to short circuit. It's a blast to ride and people are really drawn to it. Battery is 3 years old and rear fender chrome has worn thru in spots. No center stand.
