I've owned it since 1995. 

Some work?, it works perfectly, I intend to keep it just the way it is.

Thanks, someone put those on in the seventies and they've been there ever since.  My friend had this bike before me, he bought it in 1988, I bought it off him in pieces 1995 and have been using it since.  It had a major engine rebuild in 95.

Love it - if it runs and sort of stops, ride it!
