New T150V owner – New Mexico, USA

I just purchased a 1974 T150V project bike.  It’ll take a few weeks to get here, and then I’ll post a photo or two.

Looks like it’s all there, has decent compression and shifts through all 5 gears, but I plan to go through it carefully before attempting to fire it up.  I’ve read horror stories about new owners neglecting to change the oil filter, etc.  Yikes…

I plan on keeping my current 1971 T120R cafe bike, pictured below.  The T150V will serve different purposes, but it’s nice to have a vintage bike that’s sorted to ride while I work on the Trident.
