TT500 frame (was a true TT, not just a 68 bike) Serial # 68109

The good: The frame is pretty straight. I don't see any breaks or welds on it. The swingarm is straight, the shocks are in decent shape, and the forks aren't bent. Would be a good candidate for restoration. The switch and throttle grip are included, as is the dummy grip. There is brake lever on it, which isn't correct. The front brake cable MIGHT be right, but I'm not entirely sure.

The bad: The handlebars are welded onto the upper forks

The ugly: The paint isn't original. Someone rattle canned over the original paint. The chrome on the handlebars is probably shot, but has been painted silver.

This is a genuine TT bike, but I know it's not in the best condition. I'd like to get $375 for this, plus shipping, but I'm willing to negotiate. I also have the wheels listed up. If you buy both, I'll give you a decent discount
