Hey Fella´s !!
I´m considering buying a 1979 XT100 with 6000mi. on it.
It´s seem like it´s all there, and looks good except for the dented fuel Tank.

It started up (after a year sitting), and immediately stalled out.
I saw fuel dripping from the frame and thought the Carb´s Float might be stuck.

Are parts easy to come by ?
I´m trying to get it for $500...

Let me know what you think .

Thanks, Capt. Bruce Cronin
