welcome to buggy news. there is a good bit you can do to give it more low end. change the rollers, main spring and clutch springs will really wake it up. and they are cheap and easy to do

they are easy to install, just need a good impact and air compressor, or a real good electic impact.

Welcome to buggynews! I'm not too far away from you, up near Bradford, PA. Definitely do the rollers and spring mods it'll make it seem like a whole new buggy.

I really like the honda in your pics. What is it? never heard of a 320 before. Or is it a customization of your Rebel? I just picked up an '81 CM400 that I wouldn't mind customizing a bit.
