    Bryant Diaz.
    Welcome to the family. Boy you got a project there. Its a start right from the beginning for that one. Get that engine on a bench and strip it down first to clean it all out and check sludge traps. How much patience have you got as you will need it before you fire that beastie up again. But the satisfaction you get from just being the one that put life back into a bike that was past dead.
    Regards
    Joe.

    Welcome Bryant.

    That's a lovely project, you'll have to keep us advised as you progress.
    T100 SS nice.

    It's lucky that you've got matching numbers engine and frame as many bikes in that condition are likely to be made from bits. Not only is it more desirable, but importantly for you, it bodes well that the other parts are original and should fit properly.
