new old rusty 750 owner

Hi everyone. I'm the new owner of an old rusty 1981 750 for the price of zar2000 (±us$250) . (This was supposed to be my second post, the first attempt bumped me out for taking to long!) Anyway....I got this bike about two months ago knowing that it was standing for at least a year and had some electrical problems - not switching on, not even to mention starting. Thanks to everyone on this freaking awesome forum that helped me get this rustbucket alive. At the moment I'm just VERY frustrated with the starter clutch still slipping

Pictures will follow soon.

PS: any south-african members aboard?
