Im gonna have a peek inside in a few days if the weather ever breaks. The plug and the engine oil is surprisingly clean judging by the appearance of the bike on the outside. The widow I bought it from did say it had been sitting for quite awhile so...❓❓

Anything is possible, here's some inspiration for you. That $100 bike could turn into a $5-6K bike so be careful what you wish for. Before and after. ( gotta jump in a ct2 thread)

That is a very nice bike but this thing will never get to that point. Im a poor fella that barely gets by and I simply can never afford to put that much into a bike as I dont have that kinda money. I just come on these sites so I can look at others bikes and dream.. ☹. I have another CT2 roller that I gave $20 for about 5 yrs ago and I hope between the 2 I can just throw an old beater bike together and have some fun on. I am in the process (going on 7 yrs lol) of restoring a 79 MX175. I buy a piece or 2 here and there and maybe one day soon ill have it going.
