Hi everybody,
a friend of mine and me are commissioned to rebuild a 1971 Street Scrambler to it´s former glory. The bike was delivered to the US in May 1971 according to to Joe Seifert´s
delivery log books and also the NOC´s data as a yellow Commando SS.
At the moment the bike looks like this:
Haven´t seen the bike personally so far.
We can get all of the parts for the transition from Norton Motors, except the fuel tank.
There are original fiberglass tanks available and also steel replica tanks from India.
Anybody has experience with those ?
I know the roadster tanks from this source are horrible.
I guess the SS tanks have a simplier shade which is better to reproduce by backyard steel hammering craftsmen?
Cheers
Uli
