Just picked up this little Dude, just sorta came my way. It's a 1971 ST70 Dax and doesn't seem to be your normal 70's Dax. All of the decals, which are original are in Japanese.
After hours of research as near as I can find this Bike was brought directly From Japan- most likely by an Individual in the 70's.
Most all of the parts interchange with a 71 CT and appears to be a 4 speed manual shift- 1 up and 3 down . ( see the Paddle Shifter)
Before I decide it's future I've been pricing parts like a new original style Seat ( different than a CT seat)
The handle Bars are also unique with the cross brace will need to be re-chromed along with several other parts. Anyone recommend a good chrome shop ?
Any comments or suggestions for parts would be appreciated !
