We purchased this new back in 75 and rode it hard for about 10 years (3-10 hours a day nearly every day in the summer).
After that it was stored in a shed exposed to temperature (northern Illinois).
It needs total restoration. I have the manual for it and money is not a problem.
I thought I would introduce myself first but plan to use this fantastic forum for help as we restore this beast. I don't care about originality and would prefer to replace the engine.
The restoration will be a complete frame off restoration.
I cannot find ANY information on the internet but I have found some vehicles that are similar.
It is model number ZCQ-13995B
Engine is listed as: HMMB80 I believe its a Tecumseh. Most of these bikes had a 5HP motor but I thought this one was a 8.0 or a 8.5HP. I dont have the vehicle in front of me at this time.
I plan to retrieve this ASAP and would appreciate any and all advice.
