Don't forget to check those old tires and brake hoses. Tires that old can act pretty bad if given a chance and stopping is as important as going. Good Luck with her. Great bikes!
Take it from me cuz I found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound,
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure,
When yours, it could have been.
