Another project: 84 Aspencade

I got this bike for $250 from a guys trash pile. It had been sitting on its side covered in other trash for a long long time.

When I got it and the guy put it on my trailer with a forklift, it didn't run: Engine seized, clutch inop, keys lost, ... It took me a couple days to free up the engine and get the clutch working. I simply jumped the wires to get do the same thing that the keyswitch does so I could try to get spark. When I hooked the plug wires back up to the coils, she sparked. Not long after that she fired up. I got her as a project. She is.
