I 'hafta admit that I am interested in road-going 2 strokes. Looks like a nice bike. The practical side of me asks a few questions...1) it's a twin... and it has a crankshaft seal between cylinders. To renew same you need to split the built-up crank... and that is a task that benefits from an alignment jig... and is not for the faint-hearted. Can be done with care and attention to detail. Are seals available for that old a bike? Not new-old-stock (NOS) that will have perished... but new elastomer / new production seals. BTW a single cyl 2 stroke is an easier proposition... but parts availability still is a question to be answered.2) seems to me that the (single /combined) barrel would be aluminum... with factory shrunk-fit cast iron liners...? If so each bore can be machined oversize... which leads me to...3) is an oversized piston (actually... 2) c/w oversized rings available?4) if a conn rod is poor can you find a replacement std crankpin... ? Likewise... can you source piston pins? What about roller bearings (?) for renewing the conn rod? Is the old conn rod itself typically chucked... or can they be machined to "goodness"??Now I assume the gaskets are all still available..But on to the transmission + clutch???? Parts Availability...???Maybe I am unnecessarily worried, but...?

So long as we're on the subject, my best bud from grade school got this one. Perhaps the best of the breed through the early 70s.I was pretty jealous. Then the Kaw triples came out and yesterday's news.
Glad I kept my Mach IV.
Those kids could be grandparents by now, that is an old pic and those days long gone (My daily driver at the time was a 390 4 speed Mustang)I kept that bike (and picked up a couple more in the 1990's (H2A's) along with a couple more bevels)The 'Cops were very lenient back then and old bikes from your youth are expensive.
