Starts and runs. And by runs I mean it needs a throttle cable if you don’t want to badly injure/kill yourself. Not saying it may ever go that fast, but there are some real idiots out there. But it does start and moves freely.

Not much other info. $200 OBO. Seems like it could be a fun time. Feel free to text/pm/call 71679978seven0  
If i don’t answer your call just leave a msg and I’ll get back to you.
