I just finished the 1959 STU this last week. I want to give a shout out to Mutt and Red Raven for the great parts and help they gave me during this rebuild. I just got to ride it a few blocks but everything seemed to work well, shifted fine and rode great. Mutt is a wealth of knowledge on these little bikes and I want to thank him for all the help and great parts he supplied me.
Posting a picture of the before and after of the bike. I know the purest won't like the color or the tank design but I built it for me and it suits me fine. Thanks again to everyone here and all the help I received.
Best regards,
Dave Beck
