Hello,

Back in November I picked up this really crusty looking Argo.

Looks to be early 70's. It has an ABS body and Fat Cat Tires.

The bones are good. It has a new 420cc engine and everything moved as it should.

I have spent the winter getting it going again.

I cleaned up the chains, Changed the fluids, mended some of the cracks in the body. It still has some real large holes. But I do not intend to make this thing float.

I got new wheels and tires for it and souped up the engine a little with a higher flowing exhaust and a 32mm Keihin Carb Clone.

So far it has been a blast. I still need to get a stronger clutch and the proper sized belt. The cheap clutch I started with broke and engaged instantly while I was backing up and blew out my reverse gear.

But it still moves forward in low and high gear. So I will worry about reverse later.

Right now I am planning for any other repairs that might come up.

What parts are still available for an Argo this old?

My current concern is bearings. These seem to be in good order. They are not making any noise and do not have any slop. But I am sure as I start using it the way I intend, that may change. Are bearings easily attainable? Something I could find at the local farm store? Or even from Argo?

Let me know your thoughts.
