This is a great running scooter, starts up with one or two kicks. Really fun to ride, looks army. I repainted it WWII o.d. green and did some body work (it's not perfect, but looks good), added an old ammo can onto the back rack for storage. Just put over $1000 of work into it: 3 tires, tubes and rims, stand, gear box, front brakes: shoes and cable, clutch and cable, rear shock, fixed wiring: everything works! Need to sell before moving.
