As long as that someone isn't blonde with nice curves and beautiful blue eyes, does it really matter?


And, for the hell of it, let's pretend that someone is a female, too. Bikes have nice curves and can have blue headlights.

kickstart lever for a 67 yamaha is probably NLA.

id look into getting the lever welded, barring that im sure that you could find another lever off a different bike that might fit
