My 1st St70

Hi Just brought my 1st ST70, completely orginal i think, she's not been on the road since 1984! She has a few rusty bits and a few broken bits, she was born in 1972 and is it quite good condition considering her age. My initial plans are to get the MOT sorted and ride about abit this summer. New exchaust needed, and maybe a carb overhaul as shes not running right, other than that all apears to be good. Any pre MOT advise would be welcome I am concerned about emmisions so if theres anything i need to look out for then advise welcome. One of the handle bars is seized and wont drop down, is this a common problem? Will get some pictures up soon Thanks Jay

Thanks,

Looks good in the picture, but close up not so.
Lots of rust pits and bubbles, badly painted mudguards, but hey for 39 years old shes a treasure
