Where is the battery and what kinda battery izzit?
Manual decomp?
Looks very much like something a young guy would have a lot of fun on.
Have you test run it?
Zero to sixty times? Top end?
Justin to try to answer your question...
bike weighs 320 lbs. at one point I was going to try to break under 300 but the tank and frame are original 1968 Wards Riverside (Benelli) and they weigh a ton so I quit worrying about weight.
The battery is not in it in these show pics but are in earlier pics. It resides under the swing arm behind the engine. It is a standard sealed battery but slightly smaller in size than the S-40 battery. it is the same as an SV650 uses.
It has the stock electric decomp, it is tucked under the tank.
I have ridden it quite a bit. I need to find a license plate frame that says "I ride mine".
Not sure the 0-60 times but with the ported exhaust, mid range cam, and flat slide carb and geared just barely over stock gearing it gets up and moves out. (it still can't beat my GSX-R1100 though
)
I have topped out at about 80mph so far. Never taken fully up to redline in top gear.
