1976 hodaka road toad freshen up

[harley1-5]

I traded for this last night and while I was out tinkering on it it grew on me.So I guess it stays,right now I plan to get it running and license it.Cosmeticaly other than a seat cover I am leaving it original.As of now I need an ignition switch,airbox to carb boot,kickstand,and rear signals.
Any body with hodaka experience/ideas chime in.

Excuse my 3rd world ignorance, but ive never heard of a Hodaka!? What size is that motor? I used to have a 1974 Suzuki TS50 that I cut my teeth on. I also cut my hand on the old piston I modified into a gearknob for my Toyota 4AGE modified Nissan pickup.
