Pretty sure it was a 525 anyway.

straight frame no mods,

forks looks wise rusty but are straight and solid and the chrome on the springs are good at least. Has the original serial number plate in nice shape still.

rear swingarm assembly is nice straight and solid, and the jackshaft bearing mounts are nice and not mangled. Original brake assy is all there, the lining will need replaced though.

Just disassembled and media blasted the original Bosch wheels they are clean and not damaged. all original bolts in good working order, good bearings, there is no sprocket but the original spacers and long bolts are there and usable. original Riverside universal tires, 5.30/4.50x6" they are weatherchecked pretty good, but they have lots of tread and aired up they have no lumps or weak spots showing with over 20lbs in them. Front tube at this point is leaking and I will see if I have another tube.

Seat does not appear to be original and it has no wood base, but the foam is good and while is has couple small tears in the very front, it would clean up and be at least a useable seat if you going low budget.

Not shown but the bare footpegs are included as well as some various original washers for the axle assy.

$160 firm shipping is on your dime, probably about 60-75 depending on your location.
