After much consideration, and research its seeming more and more like I should just restore the thing. The main problem is that it would cost a lot in parts (even looking for generic stuff the bike is missing most of its electronics, and there is a big crack in the engine casing). I'm not selling it off just yet, but I am looking for less beat up bikes. If I just can't find anything good, I'll fix it up (I may have a friend with work space and interest in helping teach me to do it right). This is such a cool bike I don't really want to look into different body types, I'd rather just mod it to have enough power for my body, (90-100cc motor with better brakes to manage) and use it to commute.
Thoughts?
