              one owner, she is 83 now

              Bought this HS1 unrestored and in rough shape from the original owner. She never registered it. She and her kids ran it around upper Michigan back roads for a couple years then parked it. The kids wanted REAL dirt bikes.

                            Bone stock 1980 Special except for the exhaust and crashbars. Oh yeah, and the scabbard for the Winchester Defender.

                              Pretty much, the frame is uncut so it could be returned to standard, that's how the Sport frames are. The big headlight is also OEM, as is the under frame brace. None standard mufflers, rearlight, air filters, seat, both fenders, h/bars.

                                It was done by a custom shop in Spain. Find it in their blog.
