Work included refinishing the frame in black and the bodywork in silver and green, as well as refreshing the 248cc two-stroke single with replacement bearings, seals, a top-end refresh, a Mikuni carburetor, a Klemm Research reed valve, and a DG Performance expansion-chamber exhaust system. Shifting is through a five-speed transmission with replacement clutch plates, and additional work included overhauling the wire-spoke wheels with Excel alloy rims, refreshing the suspension and brakes, and more. Details include a kick starter, a chrome cross-braced handlebar, a black vinyl seat, and a rear grab handle.

The fuel tank was refinished in silver with green accents and black stripes and clear-coated, the fenders and number plates were refinished to match, and the steel frame was refinished in gloss black. Additional details include a rear grab handle, replacement wider serrated folding foot pegs, and a solo seat that received replacement foam and a black vinyl cover. The center stand in the photos is not included in the sale.

The wire-spoke wheels measure 21″ front and 18″ out back and were re-laced with stainless steel spokes along with replacement Excel alloy rims, and are mounted with Bridgestone knobby tires. Suspension consists of a conventional fork as well as dual preload-adjustable Works shocks mounted to the swingarm. Braking is provided by drums at both ends. Additional work included overhauling the fork with replacement seals, refurbishing the shocks with replacement seals and bushings, and installing brass swingarm bushings.

The chrome cross-braced handlebar carries black grips, bright levers, a twist-grip throttle, and an ignition-cutoff switch. No instrumentation is present, therefore total mileage is unknown. Tapered steering bearings were installed in the refurbishment.
