Interesting swingarm. Loks like the stock shaft-drive with the right side removed, then 2 shocks at the front side.
I to found the carb inlet clearance disturbing.Pat Kelly

Has the hydraulic clutch mod...
I'm pretty sure the air cleaner is a Levi model. Funny place to get a hicky though.
The lack of a rear brake concerns me a little, but with all that compression braking on such a light bike...hmmm...I don't use my rear brake much, but I'd miss it if it was gone.
Legroom's a bit skimpy for those of us over 4' I think, but no problem for smaller riders at a stoplight.
Easy engine access..
hmmm...Guy
