Yamaha CS3 description

1971 Yamaha CS3 twin. This bike starts and rides, looks good, and pulls hard.
Includes service manual.

This is a rare vintage bike which has been restored with a slick cafe look. 

Good:
The following parts have been replaced with NOS parts (from here):
-Tires
-Brake shoes
-All cables (clutch, throttle, brake, speedo, tach) 
-All badges. 
5 Speed shifts and hits all gears up and down just fine 
Clutch plates are in great shape, I left them alone (a NOS spare set are included)
All lights work
Auto Lube system works great.
No rust and chrome looks great.  
The bike obviously was repainted at one time.  

Bad:
Missing right rear turn signal lens
There are a couple small dents on the gas tank
May need a new front chain sprocket (at low speed the chain goes through a tight spot)
Float valves likely need to be replaced or cleaned. (if left sitting with the petcock on sometimes the carbs leak some fuel)

Delivery in the Philadelphia area $1/mile. 
Can arrange shipping to anywhere at buyers cost. (freight via uShip)

Clean title in hand. Sold AS-IS.
