That one looks mostly complete. The clutch guards are difficult to find though.

I had one a couple of years ago. It should have originally had a Tecumseh HS40, but putting something a little more reliable on it isn't a bad thing.

They're super comfortable bikes and ride like a dream, but they're ugly. I wish I still had mine :shrug:
