I pick up the key and title tomorrow. Anyone know of any good info resources for these? Specifically parts interchangeability between years. I need to source a new fairing, air filter,and stock fuel tank.

Availability is great, but I need to know stuff like whether a tank from an ‘80 will bolt onto my ‘70, etc, because that makes part hunting much easier.

I’m a bit familiar with the US 1980-83 C70 Passports. You won’t be able to use fuel tanks from any of those on this bike. These used an internal tank under the seat. The frame was different to take this internally mounted tank. On the earlier SuperCub, the tank was exposed and made up part of the body and seat support as I recall.

Now, I’m not sure but it seems this one of yours does have a bit of Passport in it. The turn indicators look to be the same squarish black things mounted on stalks as the 81-83 have. That is the front ones. The rear ones are obviously on some kind of homemade mount. Originals would be round and mounted right on the handlebars. Just an observation .

This one is a Passport front fork and engine in an earlier ( C102 ?) frame. I’ve already ordered the right tank.

Will univers al motorcycle mirrors screw into the holes on the handlebars or is it some weird thread?
