        Sounds good, hopefully the crankshaft seals are good. You didn't mention it, but does it turn over and/or run? How about some pictures, when you can? Pretty strong running bikes, in good shape. ;)

i have most of a 72 t500 here. motor locked up, missing head, cylinder, piston on the right side. this will be a lengthy project.

here's some photos. This bike is not running yet. it shouldn't take much.
I have all the side covers.
