I bought this bike intact and rode it a while before restoring it. It was a nice solid one to start with and was missing absolutely nothing. Kent Holt painted it. This is the book end to the 1955 I own as 1960 was the end of the run. This one still had its "resonator" fully intact and was not rusted whatsoever. Timing lever and magneto advance/retard system is intact and working. The wheels are NOS BMW and correct for the year model. They are 100% original down to the spokes.
